Tungsten Carbide belongs to powder metallurgy products which based high hardness refractory metal carbide (WC, TiC) micron powder as a main component, and cobalt (Co) or nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), as a binder, sintering in a vacuum oven or hydrogen restore oven.

Tungsten Carbide is one kind of powder metallurgy products which based high hardness refractory metal carbide (WC, TiC) micron powder as a main component, and cobalt (Co) or nickel (Ni), molybdenum (Mo), as a binder, sintering in a vacuum oven or hydrogen restore oven.

Tungsten Carbide exhibits high compressive strength, resists deflection, and retains its hardness values at high temperatures.

Main Properties of Tungsten Carbide

• Excellent Hardness: 86~93 HRA, which equal to 68~81HRC;
• Excellent hot working performance: Hardness could be remained at 60 HRC under 900~1000 ℃
• Excellent wear resistance;
• High cutting speed;
• Long service life;

Tungsten Carbide are widely used as tool materials, such as turning, milling, planer, drill, boring tool for cutting cast iron, non-ferrous metals, plastics, chemical fiber, graphite, glass, stone and ordinary steel can also be used to cut heat-resistant steel, stainless steel, high manganese steel, tool steel and other difficult to machine materials. New carbide cutting tools, the cutting speed is hundreds of times equal to the carbon steel.

You go to department store and there is a section of clothes, jewelry, shoes and even some electronics geared and marketed towards men or women. It is without any surprise that a vast majority of people, when searching for the perfect tungsten wedding bands to accentuate their wedding day. would believe there are specific wedding bands for men and specific bands for women. It is important to know the differences, as you do not want to be stuck with a women's ring!

Do not fret, however, as the simple truth is that wedding bands, much like sunglasses, are unisex, meaning that they are technically appropriate for either gender. However, much like sunglasses, certain types and styles are more preferred by a specific gender, and admittedly, look better on certain genders. When choosing a wedding band, it is really more dependent on what you like! Keep in mind; it is good to have the opinion of your future spouse on the decision as well. But, shop freely, as there is no right or wrong style for you. As long as you like the style and the fit, it will be the right ring for you.

However, traditionally men and women tend to gravitate to certain styles, certain widths, certain finishes and certain stone settings. For width, men tend to prefer about 6 mm, which is about 0.24 inches; a more common width for a woman is 4 mm, which is about 0.16 inches. If you find that "common" width too big or too small for your liking, do not be concerned. Any deviation from the "common" does not mean that your ring is automatically a ring for the other gender. Like we said earlier, it is a matter of preference.

For men, those who tend to be a little flashier and enjoy wearing jewelry tend to go for wider ring, whereas those who do not seem to revel in the spotlight and do not enjoy wearing jewelry tend to opt for a thinner ring. You will usually see rings for men ranging from 4 mm to 12 mm in thickness.

For women, the range of thickness tends to be between 2 mm and 8 mm. Again, this is all based on what you like and what you think looks good on you. If you are buying a wedding band made of the more precious metal variety, such as gold or platinum, it is important to keep in mind that the thicker the ring, the larger the price tag. This is one of the many reasons that couples who like thicker rings opt for alternative metals, such as tungsten carbide. You can achieve your desired look without having the added cost.

Wedding rings these days are made of traditional metals like gold, silver, and platinum. In spite of this, tungsten rings are on the rise in terms of popularity and has invaded the jewelry bazaar due to its unique features. It is indeed not surprising that tungsten rings are the top choice as wedding bands. Listed below are the 3 hints for fantastic tungsten ring selection:
 
1. Want a ring that is designed, inlaid, or engraved? There are numerous different styles of tungsten bands that are available both for men and women.

While you may not have quite the variety you would with traditional metals, there are other choices that are distinctive to tungsten. For instance, many rings are laser carved with fixed designs. The fact that tungsten is scratch-resistant means that even a delicate design will stay unchanged for years.

2. Tungsten bids to be smash resistance. While tungsten is not likely to bend under any condition it will shatter with enough force. This as well indicates that it is hard to resize a tungsten ring. So be definite that you pay for the exact size. Moreover, when discussing scratches, it really points the resistance of the material and only harsh contact with a material that is harder than itself can cause scratches.

3. Tungsten is very effortless to maintain. No need to take it to the jewelers for repeated cleanings or modifications. Simply observe the etched on your ring in case it has an inlaid on it. In addition, tungsten rings are extremely resistant to scratching and preserve their shine for a lifetime. Unlike some rings, such as white gold bands, tungsten rings need not be cleansed frequently or stop at to your local jeweler for sustaining its exquisiteness.

The top selections of tungsten rings can easily be found anywhere online. But prior to choosing or purchasing a tungsten ring, simply be mindful of the hints above so you can in no way be misguided.

The 3 C's of tungsten carbide rings are comfort, content and craftsmanship- when you buy a tungsten ring, you have to watch for these qualities.
 
We will first talk about the comfort of the ring- comfort comes from many factors, and the most important one is its thickness. Other than that, there are some ‘comfort fit' rings which are also available in the market, which are not too thick. But you must watch out for some tungsten wedding bands and rings that can hurt your fingers because they are sharp around the edges. Make sure of getting rings having round edges because they do not hurt fingers. If you are getting a ring of size 12, then a thickness of 2.3mm is enough, but for a ring of size 6, a thickness of 1.8mm would be appropriate.

Next feature that I am going to explain is the content of tungsten rings, and it represents the amount of other metals which are present in the ring. High quality tungsten rings have a hint of nickel in them, while low quality rings have cobalt. You will be surprised to see that various ring retailers do not even know much about the composition of the ring. In a tungsten carbide ring, the correct purity of tungsten is about 85%, and the rest is the combination of various other metals. If you are not sure about your ring, it is best that you research a bit about it before buying.

Last feature that I am exploring here is the craftsmanship of tungsten rings- though you may feel that these rings are crafted in the same way, but in actual they are crafted differently. Even if it is a simple wedding band, it may vary in its thickness, size, and symmetry etc. Similarly, some rings have a classic tungsten finish and some rings come in darker shades, therefore we can conclude that rings vary in terms of finishing as well.
