One material that can withstand enormous amounts of heat is tungsten. It melts at 3422 degrees Centigrade and 6192 degrees Fahrenheit. Another is Carbon, which melts at 3527 degrees Centigrade and 6381 degrees Fahrenheit.
Both of these materials are elements and resist heat steadfastly, so when you combine them to make tungsten carbide (which is used in drilling through rock), it becomes enormously heat resistant. While it isn't as heat resistant as the other two elements, it melts at 2870 degrees Centigrade and 5198 degrees Fahrenheit. Tungsten Carbide is much denser than titanium or steel, and it comparable with Corundum.
One thing is a Singularity. This is a point of infinite density, and because of that it probably impossible to melt. An example of a singularity is the point which was the universe before the big bang, which was smaller than a pinhead, much smaller. This is a new hypothetical "Particle" that, because of it's infinite density would be ridiculously hot, but because of it's own pressure could not melt.
