How To Choose Tungsten Carbide Strips

It is named "cemented carbide strip" because of its long strip shape. Cemented carbide strips refer to the rectangular tungsten carbide rod, also known as tungsten carbide flats. It is produced in the same way as carbide rod, through powder( Mainly WC and Co powder as per formula) mixture, ball milling, spray tower drying, extruding, drying, sintering, (and cutting or grinding if necessary), final inspection, packing, then delivery. Middle inspection is done after each process to make sure that only the qualified products can be moved to the next production process.

Tungsten carbide flat strips are mainly used in woodworking, metalworking, molds, petroleum machinery, textile tools, and other industries. Solid carbide square bars are mainly used to produce a solid wood, density board, gray cast iron, non-ferrous metal materials, chilled cast iron, hardened steel, PCB, and brake materials. Cemented carbide strips come in various grades according to their different functions and use.

The most commonly used are the YG series of carbide strips, such as YG8, YG3X, YG6X, YL10.2; and YT series tungsten carbide bars, such as YT5, YT14; and YD201, YW1, YS2T cemented carbide strips. The physical and mechanical properties of different grades of cemented carbide strips are not the same. You should choose carbide strips carefully according to the conditions of their use, environment, usage, and requirements. So how to choose tungsten carbide strips?

We will share with you how to buy cemented carbide strips:

1. When buying a cemented carbide square bar, you must understand the physical performance parameters of the tungsten carbide square bar. This is vital! Physical performance is generally viewed from three aspects. They are compactness, wear resistance, and impact resistance. For example, ZZBETTER’s cemented carbide strips use cold isostatic pressing and low-pressure sintering technology to ensure that the strip has no blisters and pores, so it is not easy to crack during cutting. Generally, the square bars are used to make knives and cut wood and metal. The hardness of the strip is Important!

2. When choosing a tungsten carbide flat bar, you must check its dimensions. The cemented carbide square strips in precise size can save your time from deep processing and improve your production efficiency and reduce your processing costs.

3. When buying carbide square strips, we should pay attention to test the flatness, symmetry, and other shape tolerances. Shape tolerance accuracy of the carbide square strip can make products higher quality and easier to process. And you should pay attention to check whether its edge has chipping, chipped corners, rounded corners, rubber, bulging, deformation, warping, over-burning, and other bad phenomena. A quality carbide square strip will not have the aforementioned undesirable phenomena.

Zzbetter supplies two main types of tungsten carbide strips: carbide rectangular strips and carbide strips with bevel angles.

Customized sizes and drawings can be made as well according to customers' requirements.
