Chromium Rod (Cr Rod)

Product Code : ME-Cr-5N-BR

Chromium is a kind of lightweight metal with blue-silvery white color. It is lustrous, hard, and brittle with high corrosion resistance and a high melting point. Chromium metal is silvergray, lustrous, very dense, hard metal. It takes a high polish and has a high melting point. It is also odorless, tasteless and malleable and does not suffer from hydrogen embrittlement. Chromium metal is remarkable for its magnetic properties. it is the only elemental solid which shows antiferromagnetic ordering at room temperature (and below). 

ATT specializes in producing high purity uniform shaped Chromium Rod with the highest possible density and smallest possible average grain sizes for use in semiconductor, Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) processes including Thermal and Electron Beam (E-Beam) Evaporation, Low Temperature Organic Evaporation, Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), Metallic-Organic and Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD). Our standard rod sizes range from 1/8" x 1/8" to 1/4" x 1/4" and 3 mm diameter. We can also provide rods outside this range and deposition materials for specific applications such as fuel cells and solar energy and for thin film deposition on glass or metal substrates. Materials are produced using crystallization, solid state and other ultra high purification processes such as sublimation. American Elements specializes in producing custom compositions for commercial and research applications and for new proprietary technologies. 


ATT casts any of the rare earth metals and most other advanced materials into rod, bar or plate form, as well as other machined shapes and through other processes such as nanoparticles and in the form of solutions and organometallics. We have a variety of standard sized rod molds. We also produce Chromium as powder, ingot, pieces, pellets, disc, granules, wire, and in compound forms, such as oxide. Other shapes are available by request.

Applications of Chromium Rod

Chromium rod can be directly used in oil cylinder, cylinder, shock absorber, textile machinery, textile printing and dyeing, hydraulic pneumatic, engineering machinery, packaging machinery, printing machinery guide rod, die casting machine, injection molding machine guide rod and four column press guide rod, fax machine, printer, woodworking machinery and other modern office machinery guide shaft as parts of some precision slender shaft industry products.


Packing of Chromium Rod

Standard Packing:

Typical bulk packaging includes palletized plastic 5 gallon/25 kg. pails, fiber and steel drums to 1 ton super sacks in full container (FCL) or truck load (T/L) quantities. Research and sample quantities and hygroscopic, oxidizing or other air sensitive materials may be packaged under argon or vacuum. Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes Special package is available on request.
