The life of zirconia nozzles is several times greater compared to those of steel and alumina. While alumina nozzles would degrade quickly in corrosive environments, zirconia’s increased toughness and resistance to bending allow it to withstand years of abusive service. In comparison to steel, the hardness and higher resistance to corrosion of the zirconia nozzle help lower wear rates. Zirconia nozzles will last many times their typical lifespan for most industrial applications. They are the cost-effective choice for continuous and high-performance service.

Zirconia nozzles excel in high-wear applications where traditional materials will not survive. They possess a Vickers hardness of 1400 and resist particle erosion and mechanical abrasion, and they will last 5–10 times longer than metal nozzles. Their 12 MPa·m¹/² fracture toughness offers pressure surge and impact resistance, avoiding brittle failure during severe operations. The chemical inertness of zirconia resists corrosive slurries. High thermal stability of up to 1000 ℃ makes it reproducible in thermal shock treatments. Smooth surface brings low surface friction, reduces clogging and provides reproducible spray accuracy in sandblasting, slurry transportation and powder metallurgy.
Yes. Newthink provides custom-designed zirconia nozzles for your specific application. Diameters from 0.1 mm down to greater than 200 mm and lengths longer than 500 mm with close tolerances to ±0.005 mm are achievable. Multi-hole, tapered or spiral channel design types can be made to offer optimal flow and accuracy. Please contact us for more information.
Yes. They have a low-wear, ultra-hard surface that minimizes particle generation. They are chemically inert, non-toxic and metal-free, so they will not leach with acids, solvents, and plasma gases, and react with them. Zirconia is not magnetic or electrically conductive, so it’s nice to precision equipment too. Aside from that, they withstand repeated sterilization cycles without warping or aging. This makes zirconia nozzles an ideal choice for semiconductor industries.
