About Cobalt Ring

 Cobalt RingCobalt Rings can be customized in width, thickness, and ring diameter. Cobalt rings may have a custom shape hole and may be open or closed. American Elements specializes in producing high purity uniform shaped Cobalt Rings. American Elements offers custom Rings with annealed or hard tempers and will meet most of the common Milspec or ASTM standards. Cobalt rings are hollow, circular pieces of metal and can be produced in custom sizes. In addition to standard alloys, American Elements also specializes in corrosion resistant alloys, high temperature applications, and custom shapes and forms. American Elements also produces Cobalt as rod, ingot, powder, pieces, disc, granules, wire, and in compound forms, such as oxide. rod, ingot, powder, pieces, disc, granules, wire, and in compound forms, such as oxide. Cobalt Rings can be used as components in several applications.

Cobalt

See more Cobalt products. Cobalt (atomic symbol: Co, atomic number: 27) is a Block D, Group 9, Period 4 element with an atomic weight of 58.933195. Cobalt Bohr ModelThe number of electrons in each of cobalt's shells is 2, 8, 15, 2 and its electron configuration is [Ar]3d7 4s2. The cobalt atom has a radius of 125 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 192 pm. Cobalt was first discovered by George Brandt in 1732. In its elemental form, cobalt has a lustrous gray appearance. Cobalt is found in cobaltite, erythrite, glaucodot and skutterudite ores. Elemental CobaltCobalt produces brilliant blue pigments which have been used since ancient times to color paint and glass. Cobalt is a ferromagnetic metal and is used primarily in the production of magnetic and high-strength superalloys. Co-60, a commercially important radioisotope, is useful as a radioactive tracer and gamma ray source. The origin of the word Cobalt comes from the German word "Kobalt" or "Kobold," which translates as "goblin," "elf" or "evil spirit.
