Advantages of Tungsten Alloy Swaging Rod

Of particular importance to ordnance applications are the properties of tensile strength and ductility. Tensile strength is required for alloys used in kinetic energy penetrator designed to defeat multiple space armor, for higher tensile strength, deeper armor rod penetrating under the same conditions. Besides sufficient strength the penetrator rod must remain ductile enough to endure flexure when hitting on the armor without fracture and endure greater cold working deformation to further improve strength. So tungsten alloy swaging rod with high tensile strength and good ductility is desirable for making the penetrator rod.

Tungsten alloy swaging rod is a particle composite which contains a very large percentage of nearly spherical tungsten particles embedded in a ductile matrix of nickel -iron. This composite structure results in a high density material with a useful combination of mechanical properties: high strength, moderate, ductility and outstanding thermal conductivity.

Tungsten alloy swaging rod which being made of tungsten alloy blank also possess the properties the tungsten alloy has. And tungsten alloy swaging rod has been improved the properties of tensile strength through swaging and machining. The properties above make tungsten alloy swaging rod an attractive for many military and civil applications, such as depleted uranium penetrators, bullet, armor piercing, rifle bullet, snipe rifle penetrator and so on.
