Rupal Metals is a prominent Delhi-based manufacturer and exporter of high-quality zirconium rods and bars. With extensive industry experience and an emphasis on quality, Rupal Metals supplies precision-fabricated zirconium products conforming to international quality standards. Our zirconium rods and bars are highly sought in industries demanding high corrosion resistance, strength, and durability. Supported by cutting-edge technology and expert manpower, we deliver guaranteed product performance and customer satisfaction. With complete trust from customers in India and overseas, Rupal Metals is your trusted friend for high-quality zirconium products at reasonable prices.
Zirconium rods and bars contain more than 95% zirconium (Zr) with a trace amount of elements like hafnium, iron, oxygen, and nitrogen, meeting ASTM B550 standards. These materials have good mechanical properties such as tensile strength of 330–620 MPa and yield strength of about 250 MPa. Zirconium rods are characterized by their high toughness and ductility. Zirconium rods have a melting point of 1855°C and density of 6.52 g/cm³. Their superior corrosion and mechanical resistance make them suitable for tough environments in most industrial applications.

Yes, Zirconium bars can be welded. It requires specialized techniques such as gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) to ensure good weld quality, as it is highly reactive at elevated temperatures.
To maintain zirconium rods, keep them clean and free of contaminants. Store in a dry, cool environment. Avoid mechanical damage and ensure proper handling to prevent oxidation or corrosion.
Zirconium bars are generally resistant to galvanic corrosion due to their high corrosion resistance properties. However, when paired with more reactive metals, galvanic corrosion may still occur.






We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
