The most widely used tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets in the world are made of a hardened steel, tungsten alloy, tungsten-carbide, or depleted uranium penetrator enclosed within a softer material, such as copper or aluminum. Tungsten alloy rounds, for instance, take advantage of their high-density material, designed to retain its shape and carry the maximum possible amount of energy as deep as possible into the target.
The tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets fired from rifles are strengthened with a copper orcuprous-nickel jacket, much like the jacket that surrounds lead in a conventional projectile, a jacket which is destroyed upon impact to allow the penetrating charge to continue its movement through the targeted substance.
One of the most famous types of tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets used in the past was the Teflon-coated bullets. Contrary to popular belief, the Teflon coating did not in itself help the bullet penetrate deeper, instead it was meant to help reduce the wear on the barrel after firing hardened projectiles. The strange fact is that this misconception even produced laws that lead to the restricted use of these bullets, eventually leading to their extinction.
The famous example of such a blunder was the assassination attempt on US President Ronald Reagan that took place on March 30, 1981. Then, the shooter used an tungsten alloy armor piercing bullet with a normal revolver, which actually deprived the bullet of its ability, contributing to the bullet missing the heart by less than one inch and piercing his left lung instead, which likely spared his life.

Shells of the tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets are designed for this purpose have a greatly strengthened case with a specially hardened and shaped nose and a much smaller bursting charge. Some smaller caliber tungsten alloy armor piercing shells have an inert filling, or incendiary charge in place of the HE bursting charge.
Tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets are famous for their ability to penetrate target.It is mostly because large kinetic energy and their high tensile strength focused on the target. Tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets are made from the high-density tungsten alloy that is much harder than most armors. All have a very hard tungsten alloy armor piercing warheads.Tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets can be used against tanks, armored vehicles and concrete fortifications. When fired, tungsten alloy armor piercing bullets are under the high-temperature, high-pressure gas. Reach the target, it will make a pit in the surface of the armor, red out the armor and the pit bottom at the same time. At this time, although the head has been broken, missile force the powerful impact of inertia, it will continue onrush. When the impact force reaches a certain value, the fuse is triggered, it caused the explosion of the projectile charge. At this time, exploding charge will create tons of pressure per square centimeter in area, killing the crew inside the tank or destroying armored weapons.

Tungsten is silvery white metal, melting point is as high as 3400℃; High hardness, high density, high temperature strength. Tungsten are mainly used for the production of iron and tungsten carbide. Tungsten, molybdenum, cobalt and chromium and other components of the heat resistant alloy used to make tools, metal surface hardening materials, with blade drawing machine. With tungsten, molybdenum, tantalum, niobium fusion of gold to. Tungsten copper and silver tungsten alloy used to make the light bulb, the tube parts and electric arc welding electrode. Some of the compounds can be tungsten fluorescent agents, pigment, dye, etc.
Tungsten is widely used in petroleum and natural gas, mining, electronic, metal processing, machinery and equipment, heavy manufacturing, the department that the application of tungsten to 85% of the total, other applications in military, nuclear energy and aerospace industry, etc. With the development of economy, the progress of science and technology of China's tungsten, application scope is gradually expand, to increase, and great varieties of products to meet the national economic construction and the needs of the construction of national defence and military affairs.

Tungsten alloy armor piercing bullet relys on the kinetic energy of the projectile, penetrates armor and destroys the target. Its characteristic is high velocity, long hitting the distance and good accuracy.It used for mutilate tanks, self-propelled guns, armored vehicles, ships, aircraft, or any other armored target.
Tungsten alloy armor piercing bullet is a type of ammunition designed to penetrate armor and detonate. They are generally used against body armor, vehicle armor, tanks and other defenses, depending on the caliber of the firearms.

Hard steel production is usually suppressed by a solid metal hole, known as the mold, in such a high-intensity pressure, as it is squeezed out like noodles. Can you imagine how much this incredible hole kind of power? In some cases, will use the diamond or sapphire (similar hardness) die, but die casting, made of tungsten alloy is still very high intensity, even at very high temperature.
Because of its heat resistance, high hardness, high toughness, tungsten alloy is very suitable for production of die casting, components, etc., particularly to suppress copper alloy, aluminum, zinc, brass. Die casting is made of tungsten alloy, high melting point, not oxygen (except in the case of impure).
As the tungsten alloy is very strong, which also ensures it a longer life than the traditional mold, but also to ensure minimum shrinkage porosity. Therefore made of tungsten raw materials such as the die casting to ensure product quality and high standards
