What Are Application Fields of Cemented Carbide?

Cemented carbide is an alloy material made of hard metal compounds such as tungsten and cobalt. It has high hardness, high strength, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and other properties, so it is widely used in many fields. The following are some of the main application areas of carbide:

  1. Cutting processing: Cemented carbide is an important material in the field of cutting processing and can be used to manufacture cutting tools, drill bits, saw blades, milling cutters, etc. These tools need to have high hardness, high toughness, wear resistance and high temperature resistance to meet the high requirements for materials in industrial production.
  2. Oil extraction: In the oil industry, cemented carbide is widely used in oil exploration, mining and production. Carbide drill bits have excellent wear and impact resistance and can withstand extreme high pressures, temperatures and intense abrasion. In addition, cemented carbide is also used to manufacture oil production pump components, air-tight running components, etc.
  3. Metal processing: Carbide is also widely used in the field of metal processing. For example, circuit board cutting machines, die-casting molds, injection molds, etc. all require the use of carbide materials.
  4. Welding industry: Carbide is also widely used in the welding industry. In tungsten electrode welding, copper-clad tungsten electrode and other welding, cemented carbide is a commonly used welding material. It not only has high thermal conductivity, but also can effectively prevent corrosion and wear of electrodes at high temperatures.
  5. Silicon carbide wafer manufacturing: Carbide is also used in silicon carbide wafer manufacturing.
  6. Wear-resistant parts and anti-shielding parts: used as wear-resistant parts and tools, such as knives in the woodworking industry and plastic crushing knives. In addition, cemented carbide is also used to manufacture high-temperature-resistant parts, wear-resistant parts, and anti-shielding parts, such as guide rails for machine tools and anti-theft reinforcement plates for automatic teller machines.
  7. Blanking dies: high-speed punching dies and multi-station progressive dies used for punching copper, aluminum, stainless steel, cold-rolled plates, EI sheets, Q195, SPCC, silicon steel sheets, hardware and other thin sheets.
  8. Radiation protection and anti-corrosion materials: It is also used in radiation protection and anti-corrosion materials for medical equipment.

In short, because cemented carbide has many advantages, such as high hardness, high strength, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, etc., it is widely used in many fields. With the continuous advancement of technology and the growing demand for applications, the application fields of cemented carbide will continue to expand.
