Choosing the correct grade of tungsten carbide used when producing tools can make a huge difference to the performance and lifetime of the completed product.
These are a selection of grades we are able to supply, please contact us to discuss the options.
Submicron grain 6% Co: Universal grade for the machining of non-ferrous metals, aluminium, copper, porcelain, plastics, cast iron, steel of low hardness and fibre reinforced meterials. High wear resistance, excellent suitability for diamond coating.
Download DatasheetSubmicron grain 10% Co: Submicron grade with good impact strength and T.R.S. for the machining of non-ferrous metals, nickel alloy steels as well as hardened, alloyed, cast and stainless steel. Main submicron grade with broad applications for rotating, solid carbide tools.
Download DatasheetSubmicron grain 12% Co: The very high fracture toughness results in an extraordinary cutting edge strength. This ensure excellent tool life at mill roughing of heavily machinable materials like Inconel 718, high carbide steel or titanium alloys.
Download DatasheetFine grain 9% Co: With it's cutting edge strength and wear resistance - coupled with it's temperature resistance - this grade is primarily aimed at mill roughing, or drilling of heavily machinable materials. (examples: stainless steel and non corrosive nickel-base alloys)
Download DatasheetFine grain 12% Co: The exceptional transverse rupture strength paired with high fracture toughness, predestines this fine grade for the application of heavily machinable materials. High usability in interrupted cutting applications.
Download DatasheetUltrafine grain 9% Co: Outstanding ultrafine grade for the milling of hardened steel >50HRC, HSC machining for mould constructions, wear resistant tools from micromechanics and machining of new composite materials.
Download DatasheetUltrafine grain 12% Co. A good impact strength and T.R.S is the essential advantage of this ultrafine grade. For machining of materials hardened up to 64 HRC, mould constructions and machining of titanium alloys as well as high alloyed steels.
