Chromium Wire

Introduction

Chromium is hard brittle semi-gray metal. Chromium is a kind of lightweight metal with blue-silvery white color. It is lustrous, hard, and brittle with high corrosion resistance and high melting point.
AEM can provide pure chromium products as well as chromium nickel alloys, chromium cobalt alloys with high quality and competitive prices.
