Innovations in High-Performance Tungsten Carbide Applications
Made up mainly of tungsten carbide (WC) fragments bonded with a metal binder, such as cobalt, cemented carbide integrates the toughness of tungsten with the strength of various other steels. The composition of cemented carbides can be tailored to fit particular applications, leading to the production of ranges like YG15, yg6, and yg20 tungsten carb
