tungsten carbide rod& carbide drill blanks
Carbide rod, also known as tungsten carbide rod, is a premium material widely used in the cutting tool and mold industries. Made from tungsten carbide and cobalt through advanced powder metallurgy, it offers exceptional hardness (HRA 89–93), excellent wear resistance, and high strength, making it the ideal choice for manufacturing precision tools and wear parts.
Available in solid, one-hole, and two-hole designs, carbide rods are supplied in both ground and unground conditions to meet different machining needs. With diameters ranging from 0.3 mm to 40 mm and lengths up to 400 mm, they provide flexible solutions for carbide end mills blanks, carbide drill blanks, carbide reamer blanks, carbide taps blanks, and custom non-standard applications.
Thanks to their superior toughness and heat resistance, carbide rods maintain cutting performance even under extreme conditions, ensuring longer tool life and higher efficiency. Whether for standard cutting tools, molds, or specialized wear components, carbide rods are the essential raw material trusted by tool manufacturers and industrial users worldwide.
A tungsten carbide rod is mainly used as a raw material for manufacturing cutting tools such as end mills, drills, reamers, and taps, as well as wear-resistant parts and molds.
Yes. Tungsten carbide is much harder and more wear-resistant than steel, though it is also more brittle.
Yes. Tungsten carbide is far harder and more durable than gold, which is a soft precious metal.
Yes. Tungsten is denser and harder than titanium, but titanium is lighter and more flexible, making each suitable for different applications.
A tungsten rod is extremely dense, hard, and heat-resistant. In industry, it is valued for durability and cutting performance. In theory, large tungsten rods are discussed for military or space-impact applications due to their mass and strength.
