General Notes:
- Zirconia Toughened Alumina (ZTA)
- A Superior Combination of High Strength (From Zirconia) and High Hardness (From Alumina)
- Relatively Low Density
- No Open Porosity
- Very Hard Surface, Good Abrasion and Wear Resistance
- Good Flexural Strength and Fracture Toughness
- Excellent Thermal Properties and High Temperature Stability
- Electrically Insulating
- Typical Applications Include Soldering Processes, Handling of Components During Thermal and Chemical Processes. Generally Used When Very Rigid Tips are Required.
