Tungsten Carbide Dies

Product Description

Overview

Tungsten Carbide Dies are high-performance forming dies made of tungsten carbide (WC) as the main hard phase and cobalt (Co) and other materials as binders, using powder metallurgy. They combine ultra-high hardness, excellent wear resistance, and impact resistance, and are core equipment in the field of metal plastic processing. They are widely used, especially in the wire drawing or forging processes of non-ferrous metals or special alloys, and can greatly improve processing accuracy and production efficiency.

Tungsten Carbide Advantages

• Extremely high hardness and wear resistance, far exceeding traditional mold steel, effectively resists frictional wear during metal billet forming, with a lifespan 50-100 times longer than steel molds.
• Excellent resistance to deformation, high elastic modulus, and resistance to plastic deformation or collapse, maintaining cavity dimensional accuracy over a long period and ensuring consistency in batch production.
• Good high-temperature resistance and thermal shock resistance prevent mold cracking due to thermal expansion and contraction, while reducing wear failure caused by high-temperature softening.
• Excellent chemical stability, does not readily react chemically with metal billets such as iron, copper, and aluminum, avoiding adhesion problems and ensuring a smooth surface finish on the workpiece.
