Product type
Ferro tungsten is an alloy of tungsten and iron, commonly used in the production of high-speed steel and other tungsten-based alloys. It typically contains around 75-80% tungsten, with iron serving as the primary alloying element. This alloy is known for its high melting point, strength, and hardness, making it suitable for various industrial applications.
| Tungsten content | 75% to 80% |
| Form | Lump or powder |
| Melting point | Approximately 3,422°C (6,192°F) |
| Density | Approximately 18.5 g/cm³ |
| Typical applications | High-speed steel production, hard metal tools |
When selecting ferro tungsten, buyers should consider the tungsten content, as this can affect the alloy's performance in specific applications. It's also essential to specify the desired form (lump or powder) and any necessary certifications or standards required for the intended use. Quantities should be discussed based on project needs, as bulk orders may be available at different pricing tiers.
