General knowledge of tungsten carbide inserts

Tungsten carbide, also known as cemented carbide, is a relatively precious material which is critical to many manufacturing processes. Most metal machining processes use tungsten carbide inserts as tool tips, as cemented carbide has excellent hardness and heat resistance properties ideal for drilling, boring, shaping and forming metal workpieces. Most modern face mills, lathe tools and end mills use these cutting tools.

The only downside of using carbide inserts for such a wide range of machining processes is that the tungsten material used in creating tungsten carbide alloys is both scarce and expensive. With most tungsten reserves in the US and other Western countries exhausted, China supplies over 80% of the tungsten used worldwide. In 2005, the International Tungsten Industry Association estimated that at the current rate of global consumption, all tungsten reserves will be used up within 140 years. Tungsten carbide inserts are typically treated as disposable materials, even though only the cutting edges of the inserts are worn when they're disposed.

Tungsten Carbide Snowplow Blade

What is tungsten carbide snowplow blade?
Tungsten carbide product is available in two different forms to increase the performance for most of the wear products we offer. Carbide inserted cutting edges are primarily used on the snowplow and grader cutting edges. Carbide embedded wear edges are used in the loader, scraper, dozer and motor grader application.

We produces tungsten carbide inserts for snow plow blades in various dimensions, tungsten carbide snow plow blade is used to cleaning the snow on road. All of these carbide inserts are made from the virgin raw materials and HIP/sintered, be of very high quality and excellent performances. However, the price is very competitive.


Carbide inserted-virgin tungsten carbide inserts are placed into milled grooves along the bottom wear surface of the edge giving it unmatched wear resistant properties and making this blade ideal for high speed highway or airport runway plowing.

Hard Facts About Tungsten Carbide jewelry

Tungsten Carbide makes the most wear resistant bracelets and pendants available on the planet. Tungsten is about 10 times harder than 18K Gold, 5 times harder than tool steel, and 4 times harder than titanium. * Tungsten measures between 8 and 9 on the Mohs hardness scale. (Diamonds are a 10 - the highest.) Tungsten Carbide pendants and necklaces by XtremeJewelers of Southwest Distributing Inc.

What's the difference between Tungsten jewelry and Tungsten Carbide jewelry?

Some Tungsten bracelets and Tungsten pendants do not include Carbide. (Some of the retailers still call them Tungsten Carbide however, so be careful.) A Tungsten only piece is basically only steel. A Tungsten Carbide bracelet or a Tungsten Carbide pendant can only be scratched by a diamond or a product containing the mineral corundum. If you see a Tungsten piece that has carved details this bracelet/pendant does not have Carbide - it is a tungsten only piece. Therefore, it will scratch.
