What is a Zirconia Rod?
A Zirconia Rod is a ceramic component made from stabilized zirconia powders, processed by isostatic pressing and high-temperature sintering. The dense structure provides high hardness, excellent wear resistance, and long service life. These rods remain stable under high temperature and chemical exposure.
With precise tolerance control, zirconia ceramic rods support critical applications in mechanical, chemical, and energy systems.
