Niobium Products
Elmet Technologies is a leading producer of niobium products and custom-mill parts for high performance applications. We offer extensive manufacturing capabilities for refractory metals like niobium, tungsten, and molybdenum. Niobium and its alloys are Western sourced, then manufactured in the United States for mill products and other material solutions.
With an expertise in thermal processing, the manufacturing of niobium mill products utilizes in-house expertise in forging, rolling, machining, cutting, and fabrication. The monitoring of chemical, mechanical, and microstructures is vital to consistent grain size and texture properties.
Elmet Technologies applies its knowledge in manufacturing and process development to provide customized niobium solutions. If you would like to discover more about our expertise in niobium, niobium alloys, and other refractory metals, reach out to a representative from Elmet Technologies.

Deformation Process
Elmet leverages the exceptional strength and ductility of niobium to meet the unique demands of each customer application. With decades of expertise in working with refractory metals, our team continually refines processes and controls to deliver the precise material properties needed for both current and emerging applications.
Our fully integrated manufacturing facility provides a comprehensive range of metal deformation capabilities. This allows us to transform metal powder into finished products tailored to specific applications, ensuring unmatched quality and precision from start to finish.
The Niobium Machining Process
As a global leader in refractory metals, Elmet continuously refines and enhances products and materials in highly advanced laboratories.
Niobium Alloys for Rocket Nozzles
Elmet stands as a leading manufacturer of niobium for rocket nozzles, which are critical for aerospace applications. We actively produce C-103 niobium alloy by combining niobium with hafnium-titanium. This results in alloys perfectly tailored for rocket and jet propulsion applications, including spacecraft and launch vehicles.
