Tungsten Carbide Powder Manufacturer & Supplier
We are engaged in offering a broad array of high-quality Tungsten Carbide Powder. Tungsten carbide powder is a chemical compound made up of tungsten and carbide atoms made by reacting tungsten powder with high purity carbon at temperatures ranging from 1300 to 1600 degrees Celsius in a hydrogen environment. Carburization is the most often used method for producing tungsten carbide powder. Tungsten carbide powder has found applications in various end-use industries, including building and construction, oil and gas, automotive, mining, and aerospace and defense, due to its unique properties such as hardness and high modulus of elasticity and electrical solid and thermal conductivity.
The demand for hard-wearing equipment tools for cutting, drilling, and mining is propelling the market for tungsten carbide powder. Furthermore, the expanding construction and automotive industries are likely to substantially impact the rising demand for tungsten carbide powder materials, propelling the global tungsten carbide powder market forward. During the forecast period, growing industrialization in Asia-Pacific is also predicted to fuel market growth.

The market for tungsten carbide powder is divided into four categories: grade, application, end-use industries, and region. Tungsten carbide powder comes in various grades, including rotary drilling and mining, metal forming and submicron, corrosion-resistant, general purposes, and more. The rotary drilling and mining grades are the market leaders because of their excellent impact resistance, stiffness, and ability to function in harsh conditions.
Cutting tools, wear elements, roll & die, diamond tools, mining tools, and abrasive items are all part of the application category. Carbide cutting tools are frequently used for machining carbon and stainless steel materials, as well as in situations when other devices would wear out. Standard high-speed steel tools provide a better finish and enable faster machining at a significantly higher temperature.
What is the Purpose of Tungsten Carbide?
- Tungsten carbide has a wide range of applications, including thermal spray carbide coatings. These carbide coatings are standard on high-performance brake discs. The coating enhances performance and service intervals while minimizing brake dust in this application.
- Tungsten carbide is used to make machining tools, one of its most important applications. These tools make use of the material’s abrasion resistance and heat resistance. They’re frequently employed in settings where steel would wear out too quickly, such as high-precision or large-scale manufacturing.
- This material, or derivatives of it, such as tungsten carbide cobalt composite, is also commonly used in armor-piercing munitions. Tungsten carbide is used in mining and foundation drilling because of its strength. It’s often used in sports as a material for trekking poles and ski pole tips
- The metal is frequently used in both jewelry and surgical devices. It performs better than stainless steel in the latter application, although it is more expensive and requires more sensitive handling.
