Kovar sheets and plates sheets consist of a nickel-iron-cobalt alloy, usually containing ~29% nickel, ~17% cobalt, ~0.2% silicon, ~0.3% manganese, and the remainder iron. They have very good thermal expansion control, comparable to borosilicate glass, and are therefore well suited for electronic sealing applications. Kovar has a tensile strength of ~517 MPa, yield strength of ~276 MPa, and elongation of ~30%. Its physical characteristics are a density of 8.36 g/cm³, thermal conductivity of 17 W/m·K, and Curie temperature of ~435°C, which will provide stability at high temperatures.

Kovar sheets and plates are extensively applied in applications that demand a good seal between glass or ceramic and metal because they have low thermal expansion. They are often used in aerospace, telecommunications and electronics for products like vacuum tubes semiconductor packages and hermetic seals. The compatibility of Kovar with glass along with its good thermal stability makes it best suited for applications in high-reliability electronic devices, microwave tubes, and CRT components. It is also utilized in medical equipment and scientific instruments where reliability and accuracy are paramount.
