Tungsten Army Applications

In World War II, projectiles made from tungsten alloys helped Allied forces achieve victory. Today, high-density tungsten alloys are still proving their worth in army applications around the world. The uncompromising strength found in tungsten alloys allows it to offer the highest quality in hyper-velocity, armor-penetrating applications, fragmentation devices and kinetic energy penetrators (in spheres, cubes and projectile shapes).

Tungsten has the highest melting point among all melts. The prominent advantage of high melting point is it produces materials with good high temperature strength and corrosion-resistance, which shows its excellent properties in army industry, especially in ordnance components manufacturing. With powder preprocessing technique and large deformation enhancement technique, tungsten alloys are refined to grains to increase the durability and penetrating force of materials.

There are some typical products made from tungsten:

Balanced ball for missile and plane

Core for armor-piercing shell

Tungsten alloy cluster bomb

Tungsten alloy gyro-rotor for airplane

Bullet of grenade
