Applications of Tungsten Alloy Cylinders

Tungsten alloy cylinders can be easily used for car weighting by drilling one or more 25/64" or larger diameter holes into the block and then inserting the desired number of cylinders. The hole can then be plugged with a piece of 3/8 inch dowel rod. The product also is manufactured as the parts of military defense, extrusion die, various counterweights, such as yacht counterweights, vehicle counterweights, airplane counterweights, helicopter counterweights, boat counterweights, tank counterweights, etc.

Usually, tungsten alloy cylinder could be manufactured as the parts for military applications, extrusion die and counterweights, such as yacht counterweights, vehicle counterweights, airplane counterweights, helicopter counterweights, boat counterweights, tank counterweights, etc.

What Is Tungsten Alloy Cylinder?

Tungsten alloy cylinders are the superior product for balancing and weighting cars. Tungsten is 3.2 times heavier than no-lead weighting material often used on cars, thus it enables tremendous flexibility in the design of the car. Incremental it contain five 1/2 ounce cylinders, one 1/4 ounce cylinders, and two 1/8 ounce cylinders. Using the incremental cylinders, you can achieve any weight between 0 and 3 ounces in 1/8 ounce increments.

Compared with square tungsten bar, tungsten alloy cylinder is more popular because machining and production is easier. It is more easier to take it from the mold after press which means less damage. Moreover, it is more suitable for further machining.

Tungsten Alloy Machined

The reason why the tungsten alloy machined difficult, Tungsten alloy has so many advantages, such as high density, high melting point, small volume, excellent hardness, superior wearing resistance, high ultimate tensile strength, high ductility, high temperature resistance, etc. It is widely used in many industry sectors.
We can supply three kinds of machining operation: turning operation, cutting operation and grinding operation. In addition, we can also machined tungsten alloy according to the customers' special needs.

Surface treatment：through the degreasing and acid to remove the oil, oxide and defiled things in the surface of the tungsten alloy product. The surface can also be coated by Ni，gold, silver. After coatings tungsten alloy has amorphous and nanocrystalline structure, it has excellent anti-corrosion and wear resistant, and high temperature oxidation resistance.The range of surface finish can be controlled from Ra 0.8 to Ra 12.5. We can supply different kinds of tungsten alloy machined according to the customers needs.

Tungsten alloy machined can be used in milling, polishing, lettering processing, CNC processing, drilling, etc.

Tungsten Alloy Sintered

Tungsten alloy sintered is also called tungsten alloy blank. Sintered tungsten alloy are materials that are not trimmed or unfinished and are going to be processed further processing or will-be dealing with. Tungsten alloy is available either as semi-finished blanks or as precision-machined parts.

Tungsten alloy Sintered manufacture process
Raw material power configuration: WP is mixed together with Ni, Cu, Fe, etc.
Vacuum dry: Vacuum dry the power
Press: Compression molding is wildly used in pressing
Sintered tungsten alloy: sintering is the key processes in the powder metallurgy process. It is divided into the sintering of the unit of the department of sintering and the multi-component system. In addition to the ordinary sintering, there is also bulk sintering, melting, dip, and hot pressing sintering process.
Product: With the powder metallurgy production technology, powder metallurgy and tungsten alloy sintered products are ready to use or to be machined further.

Applications of Tungsten Alloy Rod

We have a large amount of tungsten alloy rod stock for sale.Most of the major applications for tungsten alloy rod are based on its very high density where it is used to control or distribute weight in some way. The product can be machined further.

Chinatungsten can offer tungsten alloy rods and parts as counterweight, radiation shielding, military defense applications, welding rods, extrusion dies. Some sports also, facilitate the use of alloy rods, such as darts, billets, golf club, etc. In addition, we can manufacture and offer they as the replacement of one type of famous materil, with very similar properties.

Tungsten alloy rods also have other usages: electric vacuum parts and it can be used as a means of high temperature structure parts. The product also for some sports fields, such as darts, billets, golf clubs, etc.

What is Tungsten Alloy Rod?

Tungsten alloy rod has so many advantages, such as high density, high melting point, small volume, excellent hardness, superior wearing resistance, high ultimate tensile strength, high ductility, high temperature resistance, etc. Tungsten alloys can be widely produced into it used in many industry sectors.

Tungsten alloy rod is produced by pressing metal powders and sintering them into billets, which is worked by rolling or swaging into rod. it is produced in straight random lengths with a smooth swaged surface at diameters 3mm and larger, and with a smooth drawn finish below 3mm. A center less-ground finish can also be furnished.  Specific lengths and special fabrications can be supplied upon request.

Tungsten Shielding for Gamma Radiation

Effective shielding such as tungsten shielding of gamma radiation is in most cases based on use of materials with two following material properties: high-density and high atomic number.

However, low-density material such as lead can be compensated with increased thickness, which is as significant as density and atomic number in shielding applications. Yes, lead is also widely used as a gamma shield, however, if the density is much lower than the tungsten shielding material. Besides, depleted uranium could also be used for gamma radiation shield, but it is not environmental friendly. Considering with those factors, tungsten shielding is suitable for gamma radiation shielding. Especially for the gamma radiation, which is much more complex than the alpha and beta radiation shielding, in order to find a way to shield it, high density must be the most important thing, while tungsten have the high density almost to 18.6g/cm3, which is similar to gold. Therefore, tungsten shielding for gamma radiation is more and more popular.
