Tantalum is often supplied in flat sheets. We suggest that you order to specific widths and lengths that limit the amount of waste in your application. XOT metals can cut to precise dimensions with very tight tolerances. Rather than ordering big sheets and cutting the material yourself, let XOT metals do the cutting for you and reduce your risk and scrap.
Tantalum plates are used in wide range of industries. In each of these applications, the tantalum has certain properties that are more critical than others. That is why it is essential to work with an experienced and reputable tantalum supplier who can understand your application. Our team has well over 50 years of experience working with tantalum in applications ranging from missile parts to microchips. Because of this experience Admat has developed unique production processes in which we can control certain properties such as mechanical properties, grain size, texture and even chemistry.

Our high purity sputtering plates are a perfect example in which we manage the grain size, texture and chemistry. It’s been shown that uniform grain size and certain blends of grain orientation (texture) help to produce a better performing sputtering target during manufacturing. And the purities from 99.95% to 99.999% improve the tantalum’s performance in the final product.
