Tungsten Airplanes Putty


Tungsten Putty is a non-hardening, moldable material made from tungsten powder and a polymer binder. Under normal conditions, it will not harden. The minimum density is 10 g/cm³.
Tungsten Remote Control Airplanes Putty has been developed to have the maximum stickiness making it easy to use whatever the temperatu¬re. With a super high density tungsten formula (so you do not need to use much), it is ideal for fine tuning and balancing a neutral density presenta¬tion.
Tungsten is the world's 4th heaviest metal. It weighs up to 1.8x as much as lead and over 3x the weight of the Zinc/Pewter weights. Tungsten putty is the perfect weight for Remote Control Airplane toys .Tungsten is a safe non-toxic metal and it takes up less space in your Airplanes. Less space, means more weight concentration in the CG area, faster building time and more speed on the track.
How to Use  Tungsten Airplane Putty
Tungsten Remote Control Airplane Putty can be easily used for fine-tuning the weight of airplane toys. Simply pinch off a piece of the putty, knead it until it is pliable, and press the putty into a cavity or hole on the airplanes.
Tungsten Remote Control Airplane Putty has the following advantages:
• It's not lead, so it's environmentally friendly.
• It can be shaped in a slim profile to have less drag
• It's easy to add or take off to make subtle depth adjustments.
• Less chances of a leader break off because it comes off rather than being snagged.
• It's reusable

Although Tungsten Remote Control Airplane Putty is made from non-toxic ingredients, it is NOT a toy for children to play with. Always wash your hands after use, and keep it away from food and your mouth.
All types of Tungsten Remote Control Airplanes Putty can be accommodated within the Chinatungsten Online’s organization and quality standards and customer service levels remain consistent for each type of customer.
We provide different types non-hardness, moldable and non-toxic tungsten putty.

Tungsten Alloy Radiation Room


Our tungsten alloys are used for radioactive source containers, gamma radiography, shields, and source holders for oil-well, logging, and industrial instrumentation. High-density tungsten alloys also serve as collimators and radiation shielding in cancer therapy, as well as syringe protection for radioactive injections. When you need to direct a specific amount of radiation to a targeted area, tungsten alloy radiation room provides the control you need. Luke’s Metals’ high-density alloys will continue to perform, even under extreme, high-heat conditions.

Gamma radiation and X-rays are absorbed most effectively by high-density materials. AT&M high-density materials are a family of tungsten alloy materials with densities 50% greater than that of lead. The high-density, good mechanical strength and excellent mach inability of AT&M materials make them ideal for shielding applications. A variety of sizes and shapes are available. 
Why use tungsten alloy radiation shielding?
Compared to traditional radiation shielding materials such as lead and boron carbide, tungsten alloys provide excellent density with small capacity. At the same weights high density alloy can provide the same energy absorption as lead using 1/3 less material. 

When the weight is certain, more density, more denser, and the thckness would be thinner. Tungsten alloy material could be made with thinner thickness but high absorption of radiation in high density. That is why tungsten alloy material is suitable for raidation shielding.
During design of shielding, it is calculated according to requirements of shield to abate the multiple shielding materials’ thickness.
Formula: K = e0.693 d /
1/2
K: Shield weakened multiple
1/2: The shielding material of the half-value layer values
d: Shielding thickness, with the half-value layer thickness of their units, you need to half-value layer thickness of the quality of translation into the thickness of the material, divided by the density of the material can be obtained.


Fish Shape Tungsten Alloy Jigs


Fish shape tungsten alloy jigs, the most technologically advanced weight available today, are standard in the industry and have been worked into almost every famous pattern available on the market. 

Fish shape tungsten alloy jigs provide a more environmentally friendly alternative to lead. Comprised of tungsten, the second hardest substance next to diamonds, fish shape tungsten alloy jigs do not add pollutants to water. Fish shape tungsten alloy jigs are 25 percent smaller, much more sensitive and emit twice the sound of lead, they pick up bottom compositions much better than lead or brass weights, their sensitivity gives you the ability to better define under water structure.

Fish shape tungsten alloy jigs with shape of fish are used not only to provoke the big fish to bite, but also to force the fly to sink the bottom because of the tungsten material which is about three times heavier than lead.

Tungsten Alloy Crankshaft Brick


The tungsten alloy crankshaft is placed on the balancer and spun to determine the points where metal needs to be added or removed. The balancer indexes of the crank show the exact position and weight to be added or subtracted. The electronic brain inside the balancer head does the calculations and displays the results. The tungsten alloy crankshaft counterweight is done by two inserts which are made of tungsten alloy, to improve acceleration. Common method is adding light elements such as silicon to reduce the weight of the crankshaft.
Tungsten alloy crankshaft brick typically connects to a flywheel, to reduce the pulsation characteristic of the four-stroke cycle, and sometimes a tensional or vibration damper at the opposite end, to reduce the torsion vibrations often caused along the length of the crankshaft by the cylinders farthest from the output end acting on the tensional elasticity of the metal.
 Using tungsten alloy crankshaft brick can also be cost effective with some crankshaft designs. Since the raw steel stock needed for the crankshaft can be much smaller if it does not need to include the counterweights. It also makes it easier to machine the crank pins hollow without having counterweights in the way.
With regards to tungsten’s properties, it is a very dense metal with a high Moe, so it makes a more compact counterweight mass. If the counterweights are radically bolted, fatigue is not much of a problem since the bolt loads are not reversing.
Tungsten alloy’s high density also gives enhanced sensitivity by increasing the control of load distribution. What’s more, tungsten alloy has high tensile strength and good creep resistance with a high mass ratio, so tungsten alloy crankshaft brick will be the ideal to work in a restricted space.

Should I be concerned with Cobalt in Tungsten Ring?


Should I be concerned with Cobalt in my Tungsten Ring?
Absolutely YES!Many Tungsten and tungsten  rings have Cobalt in them. The alloy containing Cobalt is easier to procure and tungsten rings containing Cobalt are being commonly sold. However, tungsten rings containing Cobalt will develop a negative reaction to your skin. After a short time period the ring will develop oxidation spots that cannot be removed or polished out. This is due to the Cobalt reacting to the human body. You can easily prevent this from happening by purchasing one of our Cobalt free tungsten  rings. 


Emergency Removal of Tungsten Rings

Materials, like tungsten alloy wedding ring or ceramic, can only be removed by cracking them into pieces with standard vice grip tyle locking pliers. Standard ring cutters will not work.
Place vice grip tyle locking pliers over ring and adjust the jaws to clamp lightly. Release and adjust tightener one-third turn and then clamp again. Repeat until a crack is heard, and then continue clamping in different positions until the hard material breaks away. Take care not to slide or rotate the cracked ring on the finger. If the ring contains an inlay of gold, the exposed gold can then be cut or clipped in the usual fashion.


Tungsten Alloy X-ray Shielding

X-ray target can be subjected to higher loadings than stationary anodes. By rotation of dish-shaped X-ray targets under the electron beam, a new, already cooled part of the target surface is continually used as the focal spot. Moreover, the X-ray target cools down more rapidly by radiating its heat. Far more energy per unit time can therefore be supplied to an X-ray tube with an X-ray target in comparison with a stationary anode.

Tungsten X-rays shielding is used in hospitals, clinics, cancer treatment centers and other facilities to ensure safe patient treatment and work environment.

Application of Tungsten In National Defense


China is a country with rich tungsten resources, over half a century, made significant contributions to the development of the world's tungsten industry. Especially in recent decades, China's industrial development has moved from exporting tungsten concentrates, importing of tungsten products, tungsten processing products and gradually developed into a basically meet the domestic demand, and can develop into a large variety of tungsten products export industry country. This is not only fundamentally changed the situation of China's tungsten industry, and more successful for the development of China's defense industry and national economic development has made important contributions. Tungsten processed products in multiple areas of both production capacity or production are among the highest level in the world, to become truly world-recognized major industrial countries, but in some aspects of tungsten processing technology with the world advanced countries there is still a gap, to become a true world power tungsten processing technology needs make great efforts.

Tungsten products in the important role of nation-building

Processing of tungsten materials including tungsten carbide, tungsten alloy, tungsten wire, tungsten electrode, the scale of production of these materials and properties at or near the world level, to better meet China's national economic construction and national defense needs, has made significant contributions to the Chinese the rapid development of national economic construction and national defense modernization enable China to a new attitude based on the world of the forest.

Tungsten-based alloys in the construction of national defense and the important role of the national economy

(1) In the aerospace industry applications. China developed the first generation of tungsten heavy alloy performance good in the 1960s, since immediately after the birth of self-developed China's first artificial satellite navigation device has been successfully applied, then this new material has the first in China an intercontinental missile and developed by a variety of new fighters, helicopters, has been successfully applied. Developed to meet the needs of Chinese communications satellite, but also successfully developed a new type of density up to 18.5g/cm3 high proportion of tungsten-based alloys. A variety of high-performance W-Cu alloys in the rocket (missile) combustion chamber, nozzle, throat, rudder and other parts of the development of high temperature has been applied.

(2) Military industrial applications. China has successful developed the W-Ni-Fe heavy alloy, provides of a variety of wear, shaped charge of the development a key material. W-Ni-Cu heavy alloys also play an important role in doing gyrorotor high proportion of material in China's first nuclear submarine of the research and development.

(3) In the civilian industry and nuclear industrial applications. In the nuclear power industry, used for nuclear reactor insulation and shielding materials, tungsten heavy alloy has a good prospect. In civilian industry, high-density tungsten alloy has been more widely used; mobile phones and golf oscillator rod weight will be a wide range of products. Processing done in the electric performance of the anvil block material to make electrical upsetting of hundredfold increase production efficiency, has significant economic benefits.

In summary, the development of tungsten processing industry does not only play a very important role in building on the national economy, also has a significant impact on the modernization of national defense.

Tungsten Alloy Weighted Ball Monkey First

Tungsten alloy weighted ball monkey first is a knot added to the end of a light-line or heaving line. This knot usually incorporates a small stone or similar weight, to allow the end of the line to travel farther when being thrown. When approaching a jetty or another vessel, sailors will throw a heaving line, to establish a link with the shore or other boat. The heaving line can be easily thrown a distance of 20 m (60 feet) or more. One end of the heaving line is then secured to a heavier line, or hawser, which is pulled across and used for towing or securing.

For more details, you could find tungsten alloy weight.

Tungsten Alloy Better than DU in Military

Scientistslearned that embedded tungsten alloy fragments can cause tumors. A 2007 memorandum from the Under Secretary of Defense advises that "in light of our present knowledge of the potential health risks associated with tungsten/nickel/cobalt alloys, please have your acquisition managers and munitions developers and researchers consider alternative materials in developmental munitions programs." The discovery that tungsten, by itself in the environment, is also hazardous may escalate things to a new level.Tungsten is considered to be a alternative to DU.

Tungsten Alloy Used for Weapon

Part of the problem is that so many types of weapon use tungsten:

• The GNU-44 Viper Strike missile, carried by armed drones, has a tungsten sleeve to produce antipersonnel shrapnel.

• The 130-round-per-second Phalanx anti-missile Gatling gun, deployed on U.S. and Royal Navy ships, originally used DU rounds. They were replaced with tungsten, for environmental reasons.

• 120mm anti-tank rounds, use tungsten as an alternative to DU in training. So do the 25mm anti-tank rounds, on board the M2/M3 Bradley fighting vehicle.

• Armor-pirecing .308 M993 rifle rounds.

• The 120mm M1028 anti-personnel round, fired by the Abrams tank. It's basically a giant shotgun shell loaded with 1100 tungsten balls, each 3/8th of an inch big.

• Dense Inert Metal Explosives, the "focused lethality" munition used by the U.S. and Israel. It contains micro-shrapnel made of tungsten powder.

• Some 70mm rockets fired by Apache helicopters release tungsten flechettes.

Tungsten Alloy For Military


The British Army is already looking into the tungsten problem. A study of possible implications found that there was tungsten in the ground water of at least one UK tank firing range, and recommended that further studies be carried out.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Army seems to be taking a schizophrenic approach - stopping production of tungsten alloy -based training ammo, while looking into using it as a DU-replacement in even more rounds.
