Tungsten Carbide Tips for Agricultural Welding Application
Tungsten carbide has the characters of high wear resistance and good compressive properties, so it's widely used in many different industries which requires high wear resistance. Especially in the agriculture industry, the machinery uses various kinds of wear parts, which are replaceable frequently. If the parts' life time is longer, the cost will be much lower. More and more people are welding carbide tips to the casting parts, then the lifetime of the wear parts will be 5-10 times than the parts without carbide. All the carbide used in this industry we call it agricultural carbide.
