Annealed UNS R05200 Cast Unalloyed Tantalum

Annealed R05200 tantalum is R05200 tantalum in the annealed condition. It has the lowest strength and highest ductility compared to the other variants of R05200 tantalum. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare annealed R05200 tantalum to: tantalum alloys (top), all alloys in the same category (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
