The properties of tungsten carbide wear parts:
Strength - Tungsten carbide has very high strength for a material so hard and rigid. Compressive strength is higher than virtually all melted and cast or forged metals and alloys.
Rigidity - Tungsten carbide compositions range from two to three times as rigid as steel and four to six times as rigid as cast iron and brass. Young’s Modulus is up to 94,800,000 psi.
High resistance to deformation and deflection is very valuable in those many applications where a combination of minimum deflection and good ultimate strength merits first consideration. These include spindles for precision grinding and roll for strip or sheet metal.
Impact Resistant - For such a hard material with very high rigidity, the impact resistance is high. It is in the range of hardened tool steels of lower hardness and compressive strength.
Heat and oxidation resistance - Tungsten-base carbides perform well up to about 1000°F in oxidizing atmospheres and to 1500°F in non-oxidizing atmospheres
Low temperature resistance (cryogenic properties) - Tungsten carbide retains toughness and impact strength in the cryogenic temperature ranges. (-453°F)
Thermal Conductivity - Tungsten carbide is in the range of twice that of tool steel and carbon steel.
Electrical Conductivity - Tungsten carbide is in the same range as tool steel and carbon steel.
Specific Heat - Tungsten carbide ranges from about 50% to 70% as high as carbon steel.
Weight - The specific gravity of tungsten carbide is from 1-1/2 to 2 times that of carbon steel.
Hot Hardness - With temperature increase to 1400°F, tungsten carbide retains much of its room temperature hardness. At 1400°F, some grades equal the hardness of steels at room temperature.
Tolerances - Many surfaces of even complete parts can be used the way they come from the furnace, “as sintered”, such as mining or drilling compacts. In those parts requiring precision ground accuracy, such as stamping dies, close-tolerance performs are provided for grinding or EDM.
Methods of Fastening - Tungsten carbide can be fastened to other materials by any of three methods; brazing, epoxy cementing, or mechanical means. Tungsten carbide’s low thermal expansion rate must be carefully considered when performs are provided for grinding or EDM.
Coefficient of Friction - Tungsten carbide compositions exhibit low dry coefficient of friction values as compared to steels.
Galling - Tungsten carbide compositions have exceptional resistance to galling and welding at the surface.
Corrosion-Wear Resistance - Specific grades are available with corrosion resistance approaching that of noble metals. Conventional grades have sufficient resistance to corrosion-wear conditions for many applications.
Wear-Resistance - Tungsten carbide wears up to 100 times longer than steel in conditions including abrasion, erosion and galling. Wear resistance of tungsten carbide is better than that of wear-resistance tool steels.
Surface Finishes - Finish of an as-sintered part will be about 50 micro inches. Surface, cylindrical, or internal grinding with diamond wheel will produce 18 micro inches or better and can produce as low as 4 to 8 micro inches. Diamond lapping and honing can produce 2 micro inches and with polishing as low as ½ micro inches.
Dimensional Stability - Tungsten carbide undergoes no phase changes during heating and cooling and retains its stability indefinitely. No heat treating is required.

Tungsten Carbide Wear Parts
Tungsten Carbide Wear Parts
Tungsten carbide is widely used in industry because of its extraordinary properties. Because of its wear resistance and hardness (9.8 Moe's scale), tungsten carbide is ideally suited for wear parts, other machine parts and dies which are subject to severe service conditions, such as high temperatures, corrosion and abrasion. In recent years, tungsten carbide has emerged as a superior alternative to steel in many industrial applications.
A large portion of the tungsten volume in cemented carbide is today used in wear part applications, where there is a wide range of products from the very small (such as balls for ball-point pens) to large and heavy products, such as punches, dies or hot rolls for rolling mills in the steel industry.
Most of this tungsten carbide wears parts and the mining tools are made of straight WC-Co hard metals without any addition of other carbides.
Fine and ultrafine grained WC hard metals have become more and more important today in the field of wear parts, tools for chinless forming and cutting tools for cast iron, non ferrous alloys and wood.
The first submicron hard metals were launched on the market in the late 1970s and, since this time, the micro-structures of such hard metals have become finer and finer. The main interest in hard metals with such finer grain sizes derives from the understanding that hardness and wear resistance increase with decreasing WC grain size.

Tungsten carbide
Tungsten carbide is an inorganic chemical compound which contains equal numbers of tungsten and carbon atoms. It is sometimes colloquially referred to as simply "carbide." In its most basic form, it is a fine gray powder, but it can be pressed and formed into shapes for use in industrial machinery, tools, abrasives, as well as men's jewelry.
It is important to note that tungsten carbide is made in many different grades, which have different properties depending on what each will be used for. There are nearly two dozen different grades of carbide, but they are almost all variations of just a few parameters: grain size, hardness, and the degree to which a binder is used. Generally, the higher the percentage of the finished product that is composed of binding materials like nickel, the softer it will be and the more it will wear. The size of the original powder grains makes slightly less difference, but can affect the amount of shock that the product will be able to withstand.

Advantages of tungsten carbide snowplow blade
The advantages of tungsten carbide snowplow blade:
Carbide insert snow plow blades feature inserts of tungsten carbide. The wear and abrasion resistant carbide inserts wear longer than any other type of blade in applications requiring long runs and high speeds, such as plowing interstate highways and airports. They can outlast standard steel edges 20 to 1.
Tungsten carbide-tipped snowplow and motor grader blades feature permanent inserts of virgin tungsten carbide, the most durable material in the world. The inserts resist wear and abrasion like no other material to dramatically reduce the need for blade changes. Downtime is turned into work time. Carbide tipped blades are available for nearly any machine, even smaller plows such as Meyer and Western. Snowplow blades are FSE(flat square edge) Grader blades are FSB(flat single bevel) to fit grader moldboard.
Equipped with genuine tungsten carbide inserts, which are secured firmly to the blade with our superior brazing technique, these snowplow blades offer unparalleled fracture and wear resistance. In fact, our tungsten carbide-edged snowplow blades are field and proven to have a life span 20 times greater than competitive all-steel blades, which can stand up against the ravages of winter, snow-packed roads, performing optimally in these conditions.

Tungsten Carbide Seals
Tungsten Carbide Seals
Tungsten carbide is commonly used in mechanical seals, which is extremely tough and stiff and has very good abrasion resistance. Two common metal binders, cobalt and nickel, are used. Typically 6% binder materials are used in mechanical seals, although a wide range is available. Nickel-bonded tungsten carbides are more prevalent in the wastewater pump market due to their improved corrosion resistance compared with cobalt bound materials。
Seal face components made from solid silicon carbide are particularly well suited to abrasive and corrosive applications and can handle a wide range of temperature extremes. These components are excellent thermal conductors and can be specified where high strength and stiffness are required. Reaction bonded Silicone Carbide is also satisfactory for sealing faces, while it has excellent wear characteristics.
