Q1.What is the MOQ and production lead time?

A:MOQ is 300kg. Standard orders take 25-35 working days; customized orders tak35-55 working days.

 

Q2.How long does sample preparation take?

A:3-7 working days. Samples are free for regular clients, shipping cost is on the buyer's account.

 

Q3.What information do you need for a custom quotation?

A:Material grade (e.g., Invar 36), dimensions (thickness/width/length), quantity, surface finish, and specific tolerance requirements.

 

Q4.What certifications are available?

A:ISO 9001, along with Mill Test Certificate (MTC) EN 10204 3.1 for chemical and mechanical properties.

 

Q5.What factors should I consider when choosing Invar alloy?

A:Operating temperature range, required coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), magnetic permeability, and mechanical strength.

 

Q6.What is the difference between Invar 36 and standard carbon steel?

A:Invar 36 has a much lower CTE (~1.2×10⁻⁶/°C) compared to carbon steel (~12×10⁻⁶/°C), making it ideal for dimensional stability in precision applications.

 

Q7.Does heat treatment affect Invar alloy properties?

A:Yes. Improper annealing can increase thermal expansion. We supply stress-relieved material to ensure consistent low-expansion performance during machining.
