Applications: |
Ferro Tungsten has great hardening and conductive properties and is used to increase the abrasion resistance and strength of special steels. It is used as an essential additive in the production of tool steels, high speed steels and heat resistant steels. Tungsten has the second highest melting point of any element. The increase in an alloy’s melting point by addition of Ferro Tungsten makes it highly suitable for specialist applications including some aerospace applications. |
