Tungsten Carbide Tool Strength

Compressive Strength
Compressive strength is measured by compressing a right cylinder test piece between two tungsten carbide blocks held in line by an outer sleeve assembly. The CS of Tungsten Carbide is higher than for virtually all metals and alloys. This high compressive strength makes it possible to compress carbon at one million P.S.I. from man made diamonds.

Impact Strength
This measures the resistance of tungsten carbide to shock loading by a drop weight impact test. This is a more reliable indication of toughness than TRS readings.
