Zirconium Oxide

Zirconium Oxide

Zirconium Oxide (Zirconia) is the toughest ceramic commercially available. We actually have a hammer made out of this ceramic. This high-strength material exhibits excellent wear and corrosion properties. The material can also be HIP'd for added strength and edge retention. Zirconia exhibits a very low coefficient of friction and is available in MgO or Yttria stabilized grades.
