Applications of tungsten carbide

Tungsten Carbide, a composite material synthesized from tungsten carbide (WC) and metal binders, shows wide application in various industrial fields due to its high hardness, wear resistance, high strength and other properties. With hardness in the range of 89~95HRA, excellent wear resistance and bending strength of at least 2000N/cm², it is also resistant to corrosion and high temperatures.

In the cutting tool sector, tungsten carbide tools are valued for their ability to retain sharpness for long periods of time, making them suitable for machining a variety of materials, especially difficult-to-machine materials. In mold making, the high precision and wear resistance of tungsten carbide make it the preferred choice for making high-precision molds. In addition, in mining and drilling applications, tungsten carbide tools can resist the abrasive action of stone, extending their service life. Tungsten carbide is also widely used in wear-resistant parts and metal abrasive tools to ensure long-term stable performance.

Tungsten carbide materials are widely used in other applications such as measuring tools, nozzles and metal cutting blades, meeting a variety of specialized needs. Its comprehensive performance characteristics make tungsten carbide an indispensable key material in many industries. With the development of technology and industry, the applications of tungsten carbide materials will continue to expand, providing strong support for innovation and growth in industry. Overall, tungsten carbide, due to its outstanding properties, plays an important role in many fields and shows broad application prospects.
