Cemented Tungsten Carbide Rod Description
Cemented tungsten carbide is a sintered powder metallurgy product in which refractory tungsten metal (WC) micron powder is the main ingredient, cobalt (Co) or nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo) as the binder, and is manufactured in vacuum or hydrogen reduction furnace.
Tungsten carbide/cobalt (WC-Co) is a so-called hard metal which is characterised by an extraordinary hardness and wear resistance. Hard metals are mainly used in the production of tools for milling, drilling and pressing/punching processes. In addition surgical instruments are made of tungsten carbide-cobalt and the best-known product is the rotating balls used in ball point pens.
Tungsten carbide/cobalt rods are generally immediately available in most volumes, including bulk quantities.
Cemented tungsten carbide has many excellent characteristics such as high hardness and strength, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, especially high hardness and wear resistance. Even at 500℃, it is essentially unchanged, and at 1000℃ it still has high hardness. It can be used to cut cast iron, nonferrous metals, plastics, chemical fiber, stainless steel, and high manganese steel, etc. Cemented tungsten carbide also can be used to make drilling tools, mining tools, measuring gauges, wear parts, cylinder liners, precision bearings, nozzles, and metal molds, etc. SSC provides cemented tungsten carbide shaped and machined products such as cemented tungsten carbide nozzle, tungsten cemented brazed tips, cemented carbide mills and drills, etc. Cobalt content can be customized according to your request.
