Tungsten
carbide ball fitting are a unique category of balls because they are
manufactured in a sintering process, whereupon the metal powder is formed under
extreme heat and pressure. Tungsten carbide ball fitting are extremely
hard (92 Rockwell). The manufacturing technique makes these balls
substantially more expensive than other materials, but practically inert. Their
relative inertness makes them extremely resistant to interaction with various
liquids and alloys.
Tungsten carbide ball fitting can be found in heavy
machinery applications, since they are much stronger than stainless steel or
chrome. Particularly, tungsten carbide ball fitting have been used
industrial sprayers to regulate the flow of fertilizers or pesticides to
crops.
Due
to the strength of tungsten carbide, the balls are frequently used in the
downhole tool industry for hard banding. These are critical applications
for the petroleum drilling industry.
In
a drastically different application, tungsten carbide ball fitting are
frequently used as pen balls due to their inert chemical properties.
These balls are frequently used in miniature flow control devices, such as
medical instrumentation and ink-jet printing. Any time your company’s
products need balls with extraordinary strength and resistance to various
chemicals, tungsten carbide balls from Thomson Precision should definitely be
considered.
