  3. Description
 
Tungsten heavy alloy has high melting point. Its density is twice as heavy as steel and more than 50% heavier than lead. Tungsten heavy alloy has excellent radiation resistance, electric and thermal conductivities and corrosion resistance. It is machinable. It has small coefficient of expansion and large modulus of elasticity. So it is extensively used in military equipments, balance weights, aircraft components, nuclear and medical shields, fishing and sport tackles etc. Our capacity is about 100 tons a year.
 
  4. Applications
 
4.1 Penetrators and Shrapnel Heads
Our tungsten heavy alloys are widely used in military, such as Penetrators, Shrapnel heads etc.
In the form of Shafts for Penetrators and Shrapnel Heads (Diameter 3mm above) X (Length up to 600mm), Balls and Cubes min. 2.5mm and other Bars etc.

4.2 Radiation Shields
Tungsten alloys have much higher shielding capacity for the X-rays, ¦Â-ray and ¦Ã-ray etc. than Lead owing to the high density. They are extensively used in medical, nuclear and oil detection shielding.

4.3 Counterbalance
The most important characteristics of the tungsten heavy alloy is its high density which is especially suitable for components of small size and high weight, such as, Aircraft balance weights, Heavy pole for oil detection, Fishing lures, Vibrators for pager and Balance weights for golf racket etc.

4.4 Boring Bars
The modulus of elasticity for tungsten heavy alloys is about 1.5 times that of steel. Tungsten alloys have very good rigidity. They are especially used for the support bars of cutting tools to prevent vibration.

4.5 Others Applications
Our products are also widely used for Dart billets, Helicopter rotor blades and Dampening blocks etc.

  5. Important
 
We can produce W-Ni-Cu non-magnetic heavy alloys as well.
