Description

Tungsten (W), also known as wolfram, is a dense refractory metal used in forms ranging from mill products to deposition materials and fabricated components. The appropriate material depends on chemistry, product form, processing route and the actual operating environment.

Use the product directory above for form-specific information. If a standard item does not match your project, send the drawing, required grade, dimensions, quantity and acceptance criteria for review.

Tungsten Product Standards

  1. ASTM B760/B760M — Tungsten plate, sheet and foil.
  2. ASTM B777 — Tungsten-base, high-density metal.

Confirm the applicable standard, grade, revision and inspection requirements for the specific product and order.

Drawing-Based Tungsten Components

The linked custom-components page focuses on tungsten heavy alloys such as W-Ni-Fe. For an unalloyed tungsten drawing, include the required chemistry, geometry and inspection scope for separate review.

How to Specify Your Tungsten Order

Start with the form, then confirm grade and application conditions on the relevant product page or in an RFQ.

Choose the material

State pure W, a tungsten heavy alloy, W-Re, carbide or another compound. Product-specific chemistry and standards differ.

Define the form

Give diameter and length for rods; thickness and size for flat stock; OD, ID and length for tubes; geometry or drawing for components.

Define acceptance needs

Include quantity, surface finish, operating atmosphere, critical dimensions and the inspection or documentation you require.
