Material and Process Guides for Technical Ceramics
Six guides written from our own published material data. They are here to help you specify the right body and read a ceramic datasheet without being misled by the wrong number.
Comparison GuideZirconia vs Alumina How to Choose the Right Technical CeramicAlumina is harder and cheaper. Zirconia is tougher and stronger. The choice comes down to section thickness, impact and whether the duty is thermal or mechanical.Read the guide
Material GuideAlumina Ceramic Grades 95 Percent and 99 Percent ComparedThe purity number changes strength, dielectric behaviour and price. Here is what the 99% body actually gives you over 95%, with the measured values from our own material data.Read the guide
Material GuideSteatite Ceramic Explained Talc Based InsulatorsSteatite is the body inside most electric heating equipment. It is made from mineral talc, it holds resistivity when hot, and it costs less than alumina.Read the guide
Process GuideHow Ceramic to Metal Metallizing and Brazing WorksBraze alloy does not wet bare ceramic. The joint is made possible by a fired molybdenum manganese layer and a plated finish, and those two layers are where hermetic joints succeed or fail.Read the guide
Buying GuideReading a Technical Ceramic Datasheet Without Getting MisledDensity, hardness and flexural strength are the three numbers that decide whether a ceramic part survives. Here is what each one actually predicts, and what it does not.Read the guide
Design GuideHow to Specify a Custom Ceramic Part From Your DrawingMost ceramic quotations stall for the same three reasons: missing tolerances, geometry that suits metal and not ceramic, and no statement of the working environment.Read the guideGeneral Questions
What are the main products of your company?
We specialise in zirconia ceramic, alumina ceramic parts, steatite ceramic and SiC and Si3N4 parts.
Can you OEM?
Yes. Our main business is OEM and ODM. Please show us your drawing.
What is the delivery time?
Sample delivery in 4 to 7 working days. It is 15 to 30 days if the goods are not in stock, according to the dimension and quantity.
Do you provide samples and are they free?
Yes, we can offer the sample free of charge but do not pay the cost of freight.
Still Not Sure Which Body to Use
Describe the duty in one message. Temperature, medium, section thickness and whether the part sees impact is usually enough for a recommendation.
Send a 2D or 3D drawing by WhatsApp or email. Samples in 4 to 7 working days.
