Tungsten steel is any steel that has tungsten as its alloying element with characteristics derived mostly from the presence of this element (as opposed to any other element in the alloy). Common alloys have between 2% and 18% tungsten by weight along with small amounts of molybdenum and vanadium which together create an alloy with exceptional ...
Tungsten alloys are alloys with tungsten as principal element. Pages in category "Tungsten alloys" The following 4 pages are in this category, out of 4 total.
High-density alloys of tungsten with nickel, copper or iron are used in high-quality darts [96] (to allow for a smaller diameter and thus tighter groupings) or for artificial flies (tungsten beads allow the fly to sink rapidly). Tungsten is also used as a heavy bolt to lower the rate of fire of the SWD M11/9 sub
The tantalum–tungsten alloys typically vary in their percentage of tungsten. Some common variants are: (Ta – 2.5% W) → also called 'tantaloy 63 metal.' The percentage of tungsten is about 2 to 3% and includes 0.5% of niobium. This alloy has a good resistance to corrosion and performs well at high temperatures.
Ferrotungsten is relatively expensive, with the prices around $31–44 per kilogram of contained tungsten. [4] During World War 2, over 21,000,000 lb of Ferro-tungsten and other ferroalloys were shipped to Russia on lend-lease. [3] The cost was more than $12,000,000. Ferrotungsten comes from rich ore raw materials primarily of wolframite or ...
Molybdenum-based alloys are widely used, because they are cheaper than superior tungsten alloys. The most widely used alloy of molybdenum is the Titanium-Zirconium-Molybdenum alloy TZM, composed of 0.5% titanium and 0.08% of zirconium (with molybdenum being the rest). The alloy exhibits a higher creep resistance and strength at high ...
