Choose the material carefully

Three families.
Different purposes.

Tungsten metal, heavy alloys and cemented carbide have different compositions and properties. Specify the material family and exact grade your design requires.

01

Tungsten metal

Pure or specified doped grades appear in furnace components and dedicated welding electrodes. The grade and operating conditions matter.

Explore metal applications
02

Tungsten heavy alloys

Engineered alloys used for compact mass and radiation attenuation. Composition, density and component design must match the requirement.

Explore heavy alloy applications
03

Cemented tungsten carbide

A hard compound typically combined with a metal binder for cutting and wear applications. Carbide is shown here for context; it is not listed among the product forms above.

MACHINE SHOPS & MANUFACTURING

CNC cutting tools

Hard cutting edges for inserts, drills and end mills used in precision machining.

Where, why & what to specify

Where it is used

Cutting inserts and solid tools used for turning, milling, drilling and reaming in machine shops and manufacturing.

Why this material

Cemented tungsten carbide combines hardness and wear resistance. The grade, binder, geometry and coating are chosen for the workpiece and machining operation.

What to specify

  • Workpiece material and machining operation
  • Tool or blank drawing, dimensions and tolerances
  • Required carbide grade, binder and coating
  • Quantity and required documentation

Material: Cemented tungsten carbide with a specified metal binder

AEROSPACE & INDUSTRIAL EQUIPMENT

Compact balance weights

Concentrated mass for engineered counterweights and balanced assemblies.

Where, why & what to specify

Where it is used

Balance components for turbines, crankshafts and aerospace assemblies where the design requires mass within a restricted space.

Why this material

High density puts substantial mass into a compact component. Tungsten heavy alloys can also be machined to a specified shape and target mass.

What to specify

  • Target mass and available space
  • Finished drawing, fastening and tolerances
  • Alloy grade and magnetic requirements
  • Quantity, inspection and documentation

Material: Specified tungsten heavy alloy; composition and grade to the component design

THERMAL PROCESSING & EQUIPMENT

High-temperature furnace parts

Heating elements and heat shields for engineered vacuum or suitable controlled-atmosphere furnaces.

Where, why & what to specify

Where it is used

Heating elements, heat shields and related hot-zone components in vacuum furnaces or suitable controlled atmospheres.

Why this material

Tungsten’s high melting point supports demanding high-temperature designs. Grade, geometry, atmosphere and thermal cycling all matter; this use should not be generalised to operation in air.

What to specify

  • Furnace atmosphere and operating temperature
  • Thermal cycle and component drawing
  • Dimensions, grade and surface condition
  • Quantity and equipment requirements

Material: Tungsten metal, pure or a specified doped grade to the furnace design

INDUSTRIAL INSPECTION EQUIPMENT

Industrial X-ray shielding

Machined shielding and beam-shaping components in industrial inspection systems.

Where, why & what to specify

Where it is used

Engineered shields and collimators in industrial X-ray and inspection equipment.

Why this material

Tungsten heavy alloys attenuate X-rays and can be machined into compact shielding or beam-shaping parts. Required performance must be established for the equipment and complete design.

What to specify

  • Engineer-approved component drawing
  • Radiation source, energy and required attenuation
  • Alloy grade, dimensions and tolerances
  • Inspection and documentation requirements

Material: Specified tungsten heavy alloy for an engineer-defined shielding design

FABRICATION & WELDING

TIG welding electrodes

Specified pure or doped tungsten electrodes carry the arc in a TIG torch.

Where, why & what to specify

Where it is used

The electrode inside a TIG welding torch. General-purpose tungsten rod is not automatically a finished welding electrode.

Why this material

Electrode composition and diameter affect arc starting, stability and current capacity. Select the required grade for the welding equipment, process and workpiece.

What to specify

  • Required electrode grade, diameter and length
  • Power-source model, AC or DC process
  • Current range and workpiece material
  • Quantity and applicable electrode standard

Material: A dedicated pure or specifically doped tungsten electrode grade

REPEATED INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION

Forming dies & wear parts

Grade-specific tooling for repeated contact, forming and wear in industrial production.

Where, why & what to specify

Where it is used

Forming dies, punches, bushings and related wear components used in repeated production.

Why this material

Carbide grades balance wear resistance and toughness. Grain structure, binder and grade must match the contact material, loading and operating environment.

What to specify

  • Component drawing and contact material
  • Wear or failure mode, loads and impact
  • Operating environment and grade requirements
  • Binder requirements, tolerances and quantity

Material: Cemented tungsten carbide with application-specific binder and grain structure
