Tungsten is known as the element which is described by the symbol W. Tungsten Carbide rod known as an inorganic compound made from the same. The material has a higher strength with extreme rigidity and durability. The composition of different metals is more rigid and can be molded in different size and shapes.

Tungsten carbide rods have different composite materials i.e. aluminum-magnesium alloys, carbon fiber, iron-based alloys, plastics, etc. The tungsten carbide rods are available in different shapes and sizes that can be used according to one’s requirements. The materials used in these products are based on ISO, K10, K20, K30, and K40 F.

There are two types of tungsten carbide dependent on their primary course of action. One sort is a hexagonal structure, and the other is a cubic structure. These are known as alpha and beta mixes separately. In the hexagonal shut stuffed structure, both carbon and tungsten have coordination number 6. There, tungsten molecule layers lie straightforwardly to one another where carbon particles filling a large portion of the interstices.

WC is a productive power and warm conductor. For it falls in a similar reach as device steel and carbon steel. It is impervious to warmth and oxidation at low temperatures. Since it is wearing a safe WC it is used to make cutters for machines, blades for drills, saws, processing instruments, which are utilized for metalworking, carpentry, mining, and developments. This is additionally utilized in making adornments. Material's hardness, toughness, scratch obstruction properties have made it decent adornments making material. It can likewise be utilized as an impetus to improve substance responses.

Tungsten is famously hard to work with while in its sullied state, as it's low malleability inclines it to break. It is fragile at room temperature, thus should be cut/shaped well over its progress temperature and can't be cold-tooled. Tungsten can be ground, joined, processed, bolted, spun, stepped, and turned, however, it should be taken care of with extraordinary consideration, as it is inclined to breaking and is by and large a costly material to work with
