W93nife/Cu Tungsten Heavy Alloy Bar Rod For Industry
Tungsten Heavy Alloy Bar Rod are based on tungsten (generally 80% to 98% tungsten) with small amounts of nickel, iron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum, chromium and other elements. The density of high specific gravity tungsten alloy is up to 15.20~18.70g/cm3, also known as high specific gravity tungsten alloy or high density alloy material. Because tungsten alloys weigh more than twice as much as steel.

Tungsten Heavy Alloy Bar Rod Picture:


What is Tungsten Heavy Alloy Bar Rod?
- The heavy tungsten alloys are mainly divided into two series W nickel-iron and W nickel-copper, and even two series W nickel-iron-copper. In contrast, o - ni - fe alloy has good mechanical properties and plays an important role in various fields of national defense industry and national economy. It is a very important new military material in national defense industry and has been gradually extended to various civil industries.
- Tungsten alloys have tungsten content ranging from 90% to 98%, which is responsible for their high density (16.5 to 19.00g/cc). Nickel, iron, and/or copper are used as metal binder bases to hold the brittle tungsten particles together, making the tungsten alloy malleable and easy to work. Iron-nickel is the most commonly used additive, with a ratio of 7Ni: 3Fe or 8Ni: 2Fe by weight.
Application of Tungsten Heavy Alloy Bar Rod
- In the design and development of armour-piercing projectile abroad, the application of high specific gravity tungsten alloy is a technical measure which has been achieved in order to improve the kinetic energy of projectile core and the ability of armour-piercing. And transferred to use in a relatively short period of time. At present, in addition to the high gravity tungsten alloy core material used in the United States, many western European countries also use it accordingly.
