Tungsten Carbide - Tungsten is used in several alloyed processes including iron but most popular for combining with carbon to make a high tempature and high ware resistant product known as Tungsten Carbide. This is the strongest known metal and will have the highest melting point of any other element next to only carbon alone. Melting this product you will need well over 6,000 degrees making this an excellent element when needing a ware resistant product. Over 60% of Tugsten used in the U.S. is used to make Tugsten Carbide. Uses include cutting and drilling tools. Another use for Tungsten is filaments in light bulbs. Tungsten Carbide usually has a recycling value that exceeds most other more common metals.Other metal information: |
