Tungsten carbide material features extreme wear resistance and hardness. The material is typically forged by the reaction of tungsten (W) metal and carbon (C) at 1400 to 2000°C. The result is a grey powder that can be pressed and formed into virtually any shape. When processing the powder into a shape, manufacturers use either a nickel or cobalt-bonding agent. Several chemical compositions can be used to provide better properties for varying applications.
