How to choose the grade of tungsten carbide reasonably?

Cemented carbide, commonly known as tungsten carbide material, is a new material widely used in various industries in recent years. It has high hardness, good wear resistance, corrosion resistance and other characteristics, so it can be widely used in the manufacture of various tools, molds, mechanical parts and mining tools, chemical equipment and other fields. When choosing a cemented carbide grade, various factors need to be considered, including the desired physical and chemical characteristics, application industry and environmental conditions. The following will be based on these aspects to describe in detail how to choose a reasonable cemented carbide grade.

Physical and chemical properties

Cemented carbide material is made of tungsten cobalt powder sintered at high temperature, so it has the characteristics of hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and so on. When choosing the right type of cemented carbide, you first need to understand what the physical and chemical characteristics you need are. For example: in some high temperature, high pressure working environments need to have good heat resistance and pressure resistance of cemented carbide, and in some chemical substances easy to corrode the working environment needs to have good corrosion resistance.

Application industry

Tungsten carbide is usually used to manufacture a variety of tools, molds, mechanical parts and mining tools, chemical equipment and other fields, in different industries and different fields of application of tungsten carbide requirements are also different. For example, mining tools need cemented carbide to have good wear resistance, and chemical equipment needs cemented carbide to have good corrosion resistance. When choosing the cemented carbide model, you need to consider the application industry and field in which you are located, and choose the appropriate cemented carbide model according to the specific situation. 

Environmental condition

In the selection of cemented carbide, environmental conditions are also a factor that cannot be ignored. For example, in some working environments, the temperature and humidity are high, and the raw materials are susceptible to moisture, at this time, it is necessary to choose some tungsten carbide models with good moisture resistance to prevent the performance of tungsten carbide materials from being affected by moisture. Under some environmental conditions, there will be harmful gases such as acids and alkalis, which are easy to corrode raw materials, and it is necessary to choose a corrosion-resistant cemented carbide model.

Quality

Quality is also an important consideration when selecting cemented carbide materials. Because tungsten carbide materials need to go through multiple processes such as high temperature sintering to produce, it is easy to appear differences in quality. Therefore, when choosing a cemented carbide material model, it is necessary to choose a good quality material to ensure that the performance of cemented carbide materials meets the requirements and is more durable.

In short, the selection of cemented carbide grades need to consider many factors, including physical and chemical characteristics, application industries and environmental conditions, should be based on the specific situation to choose the right grades to ensure that cemented carbide materials can meet the requirements of production and use, and have more excellent performance. In the face of a large number of cemented carbide grades, we should do a comprehensive consideration when choosing, focusing on quality, performance, environment and other related issues in order to achieve the best results. At the same time, we should also carefully check the product parameters, quality certification and other information of cemented carbide manufacturers, and choose a trustworthy cooperative manufacturer. Through careful selection, we can choose a stable and durable, reliable quality, in line with their own needs of the cemented carbide model, so that their application environment has been optimized to improve.
