High-Performance Zirconia Ceramic Strip With Integrated Latch

High-Performance Zirconia Ceramic Strip With Integrated Latch

Product Overview
This product is an elongated strip-shaped component manufactured from high-performance yttria-stabilized zirconia (YTZP) ceramic. It exhibits the characteristic fine white texture and smooth, flat surface typical of advanced zirconia. The design features clean, regular lines with an integrated, precisely engineered latch or protrusion at one end, achieving a perfect union of functionality and reliability. This component leverages the exceptional properties of zirconia ceramic, including high-temperature resistance, corrosion immunity, superior electrical insulation, and outstanding wear resistance, making it a premium functional element designed for complex and demanding industrial environments.

Primary Applications
Owing to its unique physical and chemical properties, this component is widely used in various industrial sectors:

• High-Temperature Insulation & Support: Used as insulation supports, partitions, or carriers within high-temperature furnaces and semiconductor equipment, effectively preventing electrical leakage and thermal deformation.

• Corrosion-Resistant Sealing & Gaskets: Serves as corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant sealing gaskets or flange liners in chemical pumps, valves, and reaction vessels, ensuring media purity and long-term sealing integrity.

• Mechanical Wear-Resistant Connectors: Acts as wear-resistant guide rails, latch-type connecting plates, or positioning blocks in automation equipment, guaranteeing precision and durability in mechanical movement.

• Electronic Component Substrates: Can be used as specialized ceramic substrates or insulating spacers in electronic circuits requiring high insulation and thermal stability.

Key Advantages

• Excellent High-Temperature Resistance: Capable of stable long-term operation in environments exceeding 800°C, with low thermal expansion for superior dimensional stability.

• Exceptional Corrosion Resistance: Resists erosion from strong acids, alkalis, and most other chemical media, ensuring a long service life.

• High Electrical Insulation: Provides excellent electrical insulation, ensuring electrical safety under high-temperature and high-pressure conditions.

• Superhigh Hardness & Wear Resistance: High hardness (HRA ≥88) offers wear resistance far superior to metals, significantly reducing the risk of failure due to abrasion.

• High Strength & Toughness: Transformation toughening technology imparts high flexural strength and fracture toughness, providing good resistance to mechanical shock.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Q: Can the dimensions and shape of this latch structure be customized?

  • A: Absolutely. We fully support custom designs and can manufacture latches, grooves, or holes according to your specific assembly requirements.

• Q: What are the main advantages of Zirconia ceramic strips compared to Alumina ceramic strips?

  • A: The primary advantages are higher fracture toughness and flexural strength. Zirconia is more impact-resistant and less prone to chipping, offering higher reliability in designs with stress-concentrating features like latches. Alumina is harder but more brittle and generally lower in cost.

• Q: How much pressure can this component withstand?

  • A: The load-bearing capacity is closely related to the component's specific dimensions, thickness, and support conditions. Please provide your specific application parameters, and our engineers can perform a mechanical assessment for you.
