Category: Tungsten

Tungsten also referred to as Wolfram, is a chemical element with the chemical symbol W and atomic number 74. After Carbon, Tungsten has the highest melting point of all elements. Tungsten is among the heaviest metals found on Earth. It has excellent high-temperature mechanical properties, with the lowest expansion coefficient and highest conductivity of all metals.

Advanced Refractory Metal is a leading supplier of Tungsten products. We offer low pricing and great lead times on all our materials, and we’re capable of supplying custom materials per any specs/drawings you provide us with.

Magnetic Saturation and Coercivity of WC-Co Hard Alloys

0 Comment

Magnetic Saturation and Coercivity of WC-Co Hard Alloys WC-Co hard alloy is an alloy with tungsten and cobalt as the main components. According to the cobalt content, WC-Co hard alloy can be divided into three types: high cobalt (20%~30%), medium cobalt (10%~15%), and low cobalt (3%~8%). This alloy can be used as a tool to process cast […]
