Precision plated molybdenum wire combines the excellent mechanical stability, low thermal expansion, and high-temperature performance of molybdenum with application-specific surface properties achieved through advanced reel-to-reel plating.
At Luma Wire Tech, we manufacture ultra-fine molybdenum wire from 5 to 200 microns and enhance its performance through precision surface engineering. Depending on the selected plating material, molybdenum wire can be optimized for improved electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, solderability, electrical contact performance, or long-term reliability.
Manufactured in Sweden under ISO-certified processes, our plated molybdenum wires support demanding applications in space, medical technology, electronics, semiconductors, scientific research, and advanced industrial systems.
Molybdenum already offers excellent dimensional stability, high tensile strength, and outstanding performance at elevated temperatures. Through precision plating, these properties can be combined with enhanced surface characteristics tailored to your application.
By selecting the appropriate plating material, engineers can optimize performance while retaining the unique mechanical properties of molybdenum.
