Welcome to Tariku Metals, your trusted partner in Addis Ababa for precision-engineered materials. We take pride in our role as a leading manufacturer and supplier, providing high-quality Invar bars and rods to Ethiopia’s growing industrial and technological sectors. Our commitment is to support local innovation with reliable, locally-sourced solutions that meet the most demanding standards, helping to build a stronger future for our nation’s infrastructure and development.
Invar is a unique nickel-iron alloy known for its remarkably low coefficient of thermal expansion. This means it barely expands or contracts with temperature changes, a property achieved through its specific composition, typically containing 36% nickel. The material also offers good strength and ductility, making these bars and rods dimensionally stable and highly reliable under varying thermal conditions, which is essential for precision applications.

Yes, for Invar bar welding, specialized consumables like Invar welding rods, Invar electrodes, or Ni-based filler metals such as ERNi-1 or ERNiCrMo-3 are commonly used to ensure optimal bonding and minimize thermal expansion issues.
Yes, Invar bar and rod can be welded, typically using TIG or MIG welding techniques. However, it requires careful control of heat to avoid distortion due to its low expansion properties.
Invar rods, primarily composed of iron and nickel, are generally resistant to galvanic corrosion. However, when paired with more reactive metals, they may experience corrosion if exposed to electrolyte solutions.
The exceptional stability of Invar bars and rods makes them indispensable in fields where even microscopic size changes are unacceptable. They are crucial for making precision instruments, scientific devices, and molds for composite aerospace parts. You’ll also find them in large-scale engineering projects, such as supporting rails for telescopes, and in the creation of standards for accurate measurement, ensuring that critical components maintain their exact shape and size regardless of the environment.






We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
