Faq
They are made of tungsten carbide powder mixed with a binder metal, usually cobalt. This gives them high hardness, wear resistance, and strength.
They are mainly used to make cutting tools, drills, end mills, reamers, and wear parts. They are also used in punches, dies, and other precision tooling applications.
We offer solid round rods, rods with coolant holes, and various lengths and diameters. Custom sizes can be produced according to your requirements.
No. We do not offer free samples. Samples can be provided at cost, and shipping fees are paid by the customer.
Lead time is usually 7–24 days depending on the order quantity. MOQ varies by size and specification. Please contact us for details.
