What is tungsten carbide rods？

Tungsten carbide rods, also known as cemented carbide round rods or tungsten steel round bars, are a composite material made by high temperature sintering of tungsten carbide (WC) particles and metal powders such as cobalt (Co).It has extremely high hardness, strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and is known as "industrial teeth".

What are the uses of tungsten carbide rods?

For metal cutting tools

Tungsten carbide rods are widely used in the manufacture of various cutting tools, such as turning tools, milling cutters, planers, drill bits, boring tools, etc., for cutting various materials, including cast iron, non-ferrous metals, plastics, chemical fibers, graphite, glass, stone and ordinary steel.

Used to make wear-resistant products

Due to its excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance, easy processing and welding, these characteristics make tungsten carbide rods an ideal material for manufacturing high wear-resistant and impact-resistant parts, such as bearings, gears, valves, etc.

Other uses

Tungsten carbide rods are also used in papermaking, packaging, printing, non-ferrous metal processing and other industries, as well as in processing high-speed steel tools, carbide milling cutters, etc.
