Fine ceramics "Zirconia rod"
Can be utilized in processes that require wear resistance, insulation, and corrosion resistance. Achieves a small diameter of 0.5 to 2.0 mm.
Our company utilizes the technology cultivated in the manufacturing of mechanical pencil leads to produce fine, long-shaped ceramic products called "Zirconia Rods." Until now, we have offered these as original products, but in response to numerous requests, we have added standard products to our lineup. You can choose from four types with diameters ranging from 0.5 to 2.0 mm (in 0.5 mm increments). These are ideal for processes where "the use of metals is not suitable," such as those requiring wear resistance and insulation. They can also be used as materials for manufacturing components of precision equipment that are becoming smaller. 【Features】 ■ Capable of producing high-density molded bodies through our unique kneading, extrusion molding, and firing technology ■ Provides a smooth surface with an Ra of approximately 0.2 due to extrusion molding ■ Short lead times are possible because of domestic manufacturing ■ Sold stored in a dedicated slide tray that is easy to retrieve and has excellent preservation properties *For more details, please download the materials or feel free to contact us.

Notice of Participation in the Ceramics Product Exhibition - "10th High-Performance Ceramics Exhibition [Tokyo]" from Wednesday, November 12 to Friday, November 14, 2025.
This time, Pilot Corporation will be exhibiting at the "10th Advanced Ceramics Exhibition [Tokyo]" held at Makuhari Messe. We will manufacture precision ceramics rods and pipes with an outer diameter of φ8 or less and an inner diameter of φ0.02 based on customer drawings, utilizing the extrusion molding technology developed with our sharp cores. The materials used will be high-purity alumina, zirconia, and aluminum nitride. We will display a large number of actual samples in various sizes and shapes. We look forward to welcoming you with a complete setup, and we kindly ask for your visit.

PILOT Fine Ceramics is a unique ceramic product that utilizes core technologies such as mixing, extrusion molding, and firing, which we have cultivated through our mechanical pencils. With our uniquely developed extrusion molding equipment and firing know-how, we create high-density, high-strength, and high-purity ceramics that are precisely molded and uniformly fired. Furthermore, by adding secondary processing, we can provide high precision (micron order) dimensional accuracy for inner and outer diameters, as well as surface smoothness (sub-micron order) in surface roughness.
