Tungsten Carbide/Cobalt/Chromium Powder Description
Thermally sprayed coatings made from tungsten carbide materials embedded in a cobalt matrix provide wear protection. For applications requiring enhanced corrosion resistance, a matrix comprising nickel, cobalt‑chromium or cobalt‑chromium‑nickel is selected. Materials with a higher matrix content yield coatings with improved ductility, thereby enhancing impact and fretting resistance. Conversely, a lower matrix proportion results in increased hardness, which improves abrasion and wear resistance.

Applications for Tungsten Carbide/Cobalt/Chromium Powder
1. Cutting and machining tools: Tungsten carbide/cobalt/chromium powder is commonly used in the manufacture of cutting and machining tools such as drills, shank milling cutters, reamers and inserts. The powder exhibits high hardness, wear resistance and strength. It is therefore suited to heavy machining operations.
2. Mining and drilling tools: Tungsten carbide/cobalt/chromium powder is used in the production of mining and drilling tools. Examples include chisels, drills and tri‑lobe drills. Given that the powder possesses high hardness and toughness, it withstands extreme drilling conditions and prolonged service.
3. Wear‑resistant components: Due to its excellent wear resistance, tungsten carbide/cobalt/chromium powder is employed in the manufacture of wear‑resistant components such as nozzles, valves, pump parts and bearings. These components are used in the oil and gas industry, the automotive industry, aerospace and mining.
4. Thermal spray coatings: Tungsten carbide/cobalt/chromium powder is frequently utilised in thermal spray coatings to enhance the surface properties of various substrates. The coatings provide wear resistance, corrosion resistance and thermal insulation. Consequently, they protect components in demanding industrial environments.
5. Abrasive materials: Tungsten carbide/cobalt/chromium powder is used in abrasives for grinding, polishing and cutting applications. It provides high abrasion resistance and toughness, thereby contributing to efficient and durable abrasive tools.
