Common Application of Tungsten Carbide Hardfacing
Common Application of Tungsten Carbide Hardfacing
Due to the high hardness of tungsten carbide hard facing brings to the tools, many industries are using the tungsten carbide hardfacing technique. The common applications of tungsten carbide hard facing is deep drilling tools. Other industries where the technique is excelling are in dredging teeth, tunneling shields, earth moving machines, milling plates, conveyor screws, mixer blades, down whole reamers, extruders, and mixer paddles and scraper blades. Additional applications include components for grinding, shredding, sawing, gripping, and mixing.
They’re extremely important for severe abrasion/ wear resistance and cutting applications. Tungsten carbides make up nearly 60% of tungsten consumption in engineering practice.
Advantages of Tungsten Carbide Hardfacing
Many benefits come with tungsten carbide hardfacing wear parts to both the user and producers. Here are the main benefits of this technique:
Hardness up to 70 Rc
Easy to apply with low current
Unsurpassed wear and corrosion resistance
Use in extreme abrasion environments
Incorporates intact tungsten carbide particles for maximum abrasion resistance
More abrasion resistant than Chromium Carbide
Provides 300%-800% wear life compared to typical hardfacing wires
Easy to apply
Prolongs the life of parts
High tool’s cutting performance
Increased Production
Reduced cost of maintenance
Tungsten carbide hard facing is a technique that is changing industrial tools manufacturing. It enables factories to minimize the cost of production by reducing the amount of tungsten carbide in producing wear parts.
