Tungsten alloy block is the product with regular shape, such as square, rectangle and other regular shape.
Nickel, Titanium and lead also implied in block. Why we choose tungsten alloy to be the materials of tungsten alloy block instead of them, the reasons are follows. Tungsten heavy alloy block have excellent electric and thermal corrosion resistance characters with high density 16 g/cm3 to 18.5g/cm3, which is much higher than Nickel, Titanium and lead. Tungsten heavy alloy block also have good mechanical strength and small coefficient of expansion and large elastic modulus.
Features of Tungsten Alloy Block
The main material tungsten heavy alloy block is a kind of matrix with W-based Alloy which the content of W is 85-99%, which makes density up to 16 .5-19.0g/cm3 making tungsten alloy block ideal for the counterweight for vehicles such as racing cars, airplanes and sailboats where size place a important role. Tungsten alloy block has excellent corrosion resistance and machinable.
Tungsten alloy block Applications
Coincide with the properties above, usually , tungsten heavy alloy block could be manufactured as the parts of military defense, extrusion die, some counterweights, such as yacht counterweights, vehicle counterweights, airplane counterweights, helicopter counterweights, boat counterweights, tank counterweights, etc.
Extrusion die is one of the forming techniques used in material processing, consisting of forcing the work pieces through a die, thereby reducing its cross section and increasing its length. Tungsten alloy block is the popular used part of extrusion die because of its high melting point and corrosion resistance.
The Advantages of Tungsten Alloy Block
Why we adopt tungsten heavy alloy block for parts of extrusion die instead of lead or aluminum or other materials' block? Because tungsten alloy has high melting point more than ten times higher than lead, which is important in extrusion die process. Then, tungsten alloy has high hardness. What is the most important reason is that tungsten alloy is environment friendly, which lead can not reach.
