WC Tungsten Carbide Cutting Tools
Description
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 microinches. Surface, cylindrical, or internal grinding with diamond wheel will
produce 18 microinches or better and can produce as low as 4 to 8 microinches. Diamond lapping and honing can produce 2 microinches and
with polishing as low as ½ microinch.
Dimensional Stability - Tungsten carbide undergoes no phase changes during heating and cooling and retains its stability indefinitely. No heat
treating is required.
