A brief study of tungsten carbide roll rings Tungsten carbide is a well-known metal compound and is often referred to as hard metal due to its very high hardness in relation to other metals. Tungsten carbide has a hardness value of 1600 HV where as mild steel is in the region of 160 HV factors that is ten times lower than tungsten carbide. Even though tungsten carbide is known as hard metal, it is actually a composite material with hard particles of tungsten carbide embedded in a softer matrix of metallic cobalt. The chemical formula of tungsten carbide is WC. Tungsten carbide have a wide range of applications across many industrial sectors especially in the metal machining, metal forming tools, oil industry, mining and cutting tips for saw blades etc. Tungsten carbide roll rings are made up of tungsten carbide and cobalt well known for its high hardness, and wear resistance. Tungsten carbide roll rings takes the advantages of this metal compound of high wear resistance, long lifespan Less
