Molybdenum Supplier

Are you a molybdenum supplier in Canada?

Yes. Centura Worldwide supplies molybdenum products from Canadian and North American sources, with offices in Toronto and Vancouver. We export ferromolybdenum, molybdenum oxide, metal powder, bar, plate, wire, sputtering targets, and molybdenum disulfide to India and global markets.

In what forms do you supply molybdenum?

We supply ferromolybdenum (FeMo 60/65/70), technical molybdenum oxide (MoO3) powder and briquettes, high-purity molybdenum metal powder, bar and rod, plate and sheet, wire, sputtering targets, and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) lubricant powder.

What is the HS code for molybdenum when importing to India?

HS codes depend on the form: ferromolybdenum is 7202.70; molybdenum oxide is 2825.70/2841.70; unwrought molybdenum and powder fall under 8102.10; bars, rods, plate, sheet, and targets under 8102.94/8102.95; wire under 8102.96. We confirm the exact classification and applicable duty on every quotation.

Can you import molybdenum from Canada to India?

Yes. We manage the full Canada-to-India lane: origin sourcing and consolidation, mill test certificates and certificates of origin, ocean or air freight to Nhava Sheva, Mundra, Chennai, or other ports, and customs-ready documentation aligned with your CHA.

What molybdenum grades and purity can you provide?

Ferromolybdenum is available at 60%, 65%, and 70% Mo. Molybdenum metal products are typically 99.95% pure, and sputtering targets are available up to 99.99%. Each lot ships with a mill test certificate or certificate of analysis confirming chemistry.

What are the main uses of molybdenum?

Around 80% of molybdenum is used as an alloying element in alloy steel, stainless steel, tool steel, and superalloys to improve strength, hardenability, and corrosion resistance. The remainder is used in catalysts, lubricants (MoS2), pigments, electronics, and high-temperature furnace components.

What are common substitutes or alternatives to molybdenum?

Depending on the application, molybdenum can sometimes be substituted by boron, chromium, niobium (columbium), vanadium, or tungsten in steels, and tungsten or graphite in high-temperature parts. Each alternative changes performance and cost, so we help buyers evaluate trade-offs before switching.

What is the minimum order quantity for molybdenum?

MOQs vary by form: ferromolybdenum and oxide typically start at 1 MT, metal powder at around 100 kg, bar/plate/wire from 10-50 kg, and sputtering targets from a single piece. We can consolidate smaller trial orders where possible.

How is molybdenum priced?

Molybdenum is priced off the global molybdenum oxide reference (published in USD per pound of Mo) plus conversion, alloying, packaging, and freight. Because the reference moves with the market, we quote with a validity window and can structure fixed-price or index-linked supply agreements.

Do you provide documentation and certificates with molybdenum shipments?

Yes. Shipments include mill test certificates or certificates of analysis, commercial invoice, packing list, and certificate of origin, plus any additional documentation required for Indian customs clearance or your end-use compliance.
