Tungsten carbide balls are used forextreme hardness and wear resistance application; and applications like bearings, ball screws, valves and flow meters. These balls are also used for coining and as pivots, detents and tips for gauges and tracers. Tungsten carbide itself is practically inert and extremely strong. Since other material is less expensive, the selection of tungsten carbide solely for corrosion resistance is usually not justified. In highly corrosive conditions, carbides with a more resistant binder can be supplied. We also have tungsten carbidewhich is available for you.
