Features of Tungsten-molybdenum alloy rods

 

High Melting Point: Tungsten-molybdenum alloys have an extremely high melting point, typically above 2500°C, allowing them to maintain stable structure and performance in high-temperature environments without melting or deforming easily.

 

High Thermal Conductivity: They exhibit excellent thermal conductivity, enabling efficient heat dissipation and preventing localized overheating, thereby extending component lifespan.

 

Low Thermal Expansion Coefficient: With a low thermal expansion coefficient at high temperatures, these alloy rods experience minimal dimensional changes, ensuring high precision in applications with temperature fluctuations.

 

Resistance to Molten Metals: They demonstrate exceptional corrosion resistance against aggressive media such as molten zinc, making them ideal for industries like zinc smelting, where they effectively withstand erosion.

 

Oxidation Resistance: In high-temperature oxidizing environments, tungsten-molybdenum alloys form a dense oxide layer that protects the base material from further oxidation, enhancing durability.

 

High Strength and Hardness: The alloys possess superior strength and hardness, enabling them to withstand significant mechanical stress, making them suitable for high-strength components.

 

Good Creep Resistance: Under high-temperature and high-stress conditions, they exhibit low creep rates, minimizing deformation over time.

 

Ease of Machining: Compared to pure tungsten, tungsten-molybdenum alloys have moderate hardness, making them easier to machine (e.g., turning, milling) and suitable for high-precision manufacturing.

 

Weldability: Under specific conditions, these alloys can be welded to other metals, broadening their application scope.

 

High Density: While dense, they are slightly less dense than pure tungsten, making them advantageous for applications requiring high-density materials (e.g., aerospace counterweights) while remaining manageable for machining and use.

 

Applications of  Tungsten-molybdenum alloy rods

 

Aerospace Applications:

 

Rocket Engine Components: Used to manufacture critical parts such as gas rudders and protective shields in rocket engines. These components must operate in high-temperature, high-pressure, and highly corrosive environments, making tungsten-molybdenum alloys an ideal material due to their high melting point, excellent thermal conductivity, and low thermal expansion coefficient.

Aircraft Engine Blades: In aviation engines, tungsten-molybdenum alloys can be used to produce high-temperature turbine blades. Their superior creep resistance and high-temperature strength ensure stable engine operation under extreme heat.

 

Electronics Industry:

 

Electron Tube Grids: Used in the production of electron tube grids, where their excellent electrical and thermal conductivity ensures efficient performance.

Light Bulb Support Filaments: Tungsten-molybdenum alloy rods serve as support filaments in light bulbs, with their high melting point and ablation resistance extending bulb lifespan.

 

High-Temperature Furnace Components:

 

Structural Parts for High-Temperature Furnaces: Due to their high-temperature strength and low vapor pressure, these alloys are used in furnace bodies, hearth plates, and other structural components that must endure mechanical stress in extreme heat.

Heating Elements: Tungsten-molybdenum rods are also employed as heating elements in high-temperature furnaces, thanks to their excellent electrical conductivity and oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures.

 

Zinc Smelting Industry:

 

Agitators: Used in zinc smelting agitators, their corrosion resistance against molten zinc ensures long-term stability in high-temperature, highly corrosive environments.

Pipeline and Vessel Linings: Applied in pipelines and container linings for zinc smelting, effectively resisting molten zinc erosion and extending equipment service life.

 

Machining and Tooling:

 

High-Precision Molds: Tungsten-molybdenum alloy rods are used to manufacture high-precision molds, where their high strength and hardness ensure durability and dimensional accuracy.

Cutting Tools: In machining, these alloys are used to produce cutting tools, benefiting from their wear resistance and impact toughness to enhance tool longevity and processing efficiency.

 

FAQ

Are you a factory or manufacturer?

Yes, we are a factory but generally, we use our trading company to handle the business abroad. It will be convenient to receive the remittance and arrange the shipment.

What is the delivery method?

A: Generally, we send cargo by UPS, DHL or FedEx. Also, we can send by sea to seaport or by air to the closest airport.

Why Is Your Product So Cost-Effective?

We cut out the middlemen in the end-to-end manufacturing process. Rather than obtaining semi-finished goods from other suppliers, we obtain our raw material of APT powder directly from its source.
