High Purity Vanadium Tubes
Vanadium tubes represent a specialized form of this remarkable transition metal, combining vanadium's inherent properties with the structural advantages of tubular geometry—creating a material solution for the most demanding industrial environments.
What Makes Vanadium Tubes Unique?
Vanadium's atomic structure (atomic number 23, symbol V) gives it unique material properties that translate exceptionally well to tubular applications:
Exceptional Temperature Stability: Maintains strength at temperatures exceeding 1,900°C (3,450°F)
Superior Corrosion Resistance: Resists attack from acids, alkalis, and aggressive chemical environments
Low Neutron Absorption: Ideal for nuclear applications with minimal radiation interaction
Excellent Strength-to-Weight Ratio: High tensile strength with relatively low density (6.11 g/cm3)
Oxidation Resistance: Forms a protective oxide layer at elevated temperatures

Manufacturing Process of Vanadium Tube
Our specialized manufacturing process ensures the highest quality vanadium tubes with precise dimensions and exceptional purity.
1. High Purity Vanadium Production
Vanadium metal of specified purity is produced using advanced reduction processes, ensuring minimal impurities and consistent quality.
2. Billet Preparation
Pure vanadium is melted and cast into billets of specific dimensions, which are then homogenized and surface-prepared for extrusion.
3. Hot Forging
Billets are heated to controlled temperatures and extruded through dies to form tube blanks with approximate final dimensions.
4. Cold Drawing
Tube blanks undergo multiple cold drawing passes with intermediate annealing to achieve precise final dimensions and mechanical properties.
5. Heat Treatment
Tubes are annealed in controlled atmosphere furnaces to relieve stresses and achieve the desired mechanical properties.
6. Finishing & Quality Control
Tubes undergo surface finishing (as specified), precision cutting, and rigorous quality control testing before final packaging.
Quality Control & Testing of Vanadium Tube
Chemical Analysis
Glow Discharge Mass Spectrometry (GDMS) and OES verify purity levels and chemical composition.
Dimensional Inspection
Laser scanning and precision metrology ensure dimensional accuracy and tolerance control.
Nondestructive Testing
Ultrasonic and eddy current testing detect internal and surface defects without damaging the material.
Mechanical Testing
Tensile testing, hardness measurement, and impact testing verify mechanical properties.
