Tungsten Carbide

MetalsTek Engineering is a professional supplier of Tungsten Carbides. We offer our products at high quality and competitive prices.

Tungsten Carbide Powder

Tungsten carbide powder (WC) serves as the main ingredient in the production of cemented carbide. It appears as a black six-square crystal with a metallic luster and boasts a hardness akin to a diamond. Notably, it is an excellent conductor of both electricity and heat. With a melting point of 2,870°C and a boiling point of 6,000°C, tungsten carbide finds extensive industrial use in metal drilling, turning, and milling, primarily through carbide tools.
