Ordnance components

Since at least World War II, tungsten alloys have proven their worth in ordnance applications. Hyper-velocity armor-penetrating applications use our materials in spheres, cubes, and projectile shapes.

Manufacturing techniques and additives allow us to vary certain properties, such as elongation, ultimate tensile strength, and hardness, of our tungsten alloys in order to meet your needs.

The normal tungsten alloy rod after swaging, ultimate tensile strength would be increased greatly. The ultimate tensile strength of general tungsten alloy rod is 1050 MPa. However, after swaging, the ultimate tensile strength can reach 1200 MPa min, we could even control at 1400 MPa. This type of rod is one of our main products. The composition of this kind of products is 93%WNiFe. Following are our common types of tungsten alloy swaging rod:
Diameter: 12mm~20mm, Length: less than 400mm;
Diameter: 20mm~400mm, Length: less than 500mm.
