Tungsten-carbide inserts. Carbide is more expensive per unit than other typical tool materials, and it is more brittle, making it susceptible to chipping and breaking. To offset these problems, the carbide cutting tip itself is often in the form of a small insert for a larger tipped tool whose shank is made of another material, usually carbon ...
In the types in which the cutter portion is an indexable part clamped by a screw, the cutters are called inserts (because they are inserted into the tool body). Tipped tools allow each part of the tool, the shank and the cutter(s), to be made of the material with the best properties for its job.
TCC – tungsten carbide coating; TCCC – transfer of care, custody and control; TCF – temporary construction facilities; TCF – trillion cubic feet (of gas [citation needed]) TCI – tungsten carbide insert (a type of rollercone drillbit [citation needed]) TCP – tubing conveyed perforating (gun) TCPD – tubing-conveyed perforating depth
Boron carbide, B 4 C, on the other hand, has an unusual structure which includes icosahedral boron units linked by carbon atoms. In this respect boron carbide is similar to the boron rich borides. Both silicon carbide (also known as carborundum) and boron carbide are very hard materials and refractory. Both materials are important industrially.
Kyocera acquired the terminal business of US digital communications technology company Qualcomm in February 2000, [17] and became a major supplier of mobile handsets. In 2008, Kyocera also took over the handset business of Sanyo, eventually forming 'Kyocera Communications, Inc.'. The Kyocera Communications terminal division is located in San Diego.
These attributes are all necessary for carbide sawing. Also, the existing tooth geometry with positive cutting angles caused cracking of the carbide tips which were harder and consequently, more brittle than the high-speed steel (HSS) circular blades. The name carbide saw came from the tool, a circular saw blade, with silver soldered carbide tips.
6C27, a common knife steel grade with good corrosion resistance and low hardness, is mainly used in applications where the need for wear resistance is low. 7C27Mo2, generally the same properties as Sandvik 6C27, but with improved corrosion resistance. 12C27, a grade with high hardness and good wear resistance.
Stellite alloys are a family of completely non-magnetic and corrosion-resistant cobalt alloys of various compositions that have been optimised for different uses. Stellite alloys are suited for cutting tools, an example is Stellite 100, because this alloy is quite hard, maintains a good cutting edge at high temperature, and resists hardening and annealing.
