Tungsten Carbide Scrap
Tungsten carbide is a chemical compound containing the elements tungsten and carbon. It is another one of those metals that heavily relies on the recycling of tungsten carbide scrap, which has a wide range of useful properties. In the United States, the recycling of tungsten carbide scrap even accounts for nearly one-third of the tungsten consumed.
One of the most important properties of tungsten carbide scrap is its extreme hardness, which is close to that of diamond but being cheaper and a more heat resistant alternative to diamond. For these reasons, tungsten carbide scrap that is recycled is used in the manufacture of abrasives, cutting tools and bearings. In fact, tungsten carbide scrap used in the production of knives is harder than sapphire and maintains an excellent edge even after extensive use.
Other outstanding properties of tungsten carbide scrap include high resistance to corrosion, high thermal conductivity, high electrical conductivity, high modulus of elasticity, and high resistance to thermal creep. Tungsten carbide scrap is recycled in all forms, including tungsten carbide tooling, drill bits, punches, anvils, end mills, dies, tooling inserts, and wear parts. They can be used in the production of mining bits, wear-resistant components, bullets and metal cutting rods. In addition, tungsten carbide scrap is used in the manufacture of scratch-resistant jewelry such as wedding rings and watchbands.
Tungsten carbide scrap, by benefit of its properties noted above, is an important resource to the industrialized world. Today there is a global trade in the buying and selling of tungsten carbide scrap. The forecast is that the volume for both buyers and sellers will continue to increase.
