Carbide  Bushings For Petroleum Ondustry

In the petroleum industry, equipment is often required to operate in extremely harsh environments, not only to face high-speed fluid washout, but also to resist the erosion of sand and other abrasive media, as well as the hazards of corrosive media. To meet these challenges, carbide wear sleeves are the material of choice for the petroleum industry because of their excellent performance.

Cemented carbide, a composite material made of high hardness tungsten carbide and cobalt containing powder as the main raw material, is pressed and sintered at high temperatures and has extremely high hardness, strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. Its hardness can reach over 90 on the Mohs scale, far exceeding traditional materials such as steel, so it can show unique advantages in high-strength, high wear-resistant occasions.

In the process of petroleum exploration, mining and production, cemented carbide wear-resistant bushings are widely used in various mechanical equipment. For example, in drilling operations, cemented carbide drill bits can withstand extreme high pressure, high temperature and strong abrasion with their excellent wear and impact resistance, which greatly improves drilling efficiency. In addition, Cemented Carbide Wear Sleeves are also used to manufacture oil recovery pump components, gas-tight running parts, etc., ensuring stable operation of equipment in harsh environments.

The advantages of Cemented Carbide Sleeve not only lie in its good physical properties, but also in its good self-lubrication and friction and wear resistance characteristics. This makes it outstanding in reducing equipment wear and prolonging service life. At the same time, the large thermal conductivity and fast heat dissipation of Cemented Carbide Wear Sleeves can effectively reduce the temperature rise of the grinding surface and provide better protection against paired friction. In addition, its high damping characteristics can also play a role in damping vibration and noise, improving the overall performance of the equipment.
