Uses
AM Pt-0 is pure Platinum (99.995% minimum) with very little to no trace elements of impurities. AM Pt-0 can be used as a braze filler metal for refractory metals or other extreme environments. AM Pt-0 primary usage is within the medical industry as a conductive lead-wire or component in medical devices. AM Pt-0 is approved for internal use by the FDA.
Brazing Characteristics
AM Pt-0 is the highest grade of commercially pure fine platinum available with minimum trace elements. AM Pt-0 is very ductile and has high corrosion resistance.
