Tungsten-rhenium alloys are available over a wide temperature range (-196°C to 2,760°C) and standard temperature tables (ASTM E230 and E1751) are available from 0°C to 2315°C. 
Rhenium improves the properties of tungsten. Tungsten-rhenium alloys offer greater ductility at low temperatures while also providing greater stability at high temperatures. This effect increases with increasing rhenium concentration, which is typically as high as 26% in tungsten-rhenium alloys. These materials are relatively low cost compared to the precious metals platinum and rhodium.
The main product of tungsten-rhenium alloy is tungsten-rhenium wire. Our company can also customize plates, sheets and rods.
