introduction
Custom Tungsten Carbide Parts in CNC Machining
Tungsten steel, a composite material made by combining a compound of tungsten and carbon (tungsten carbide, WC) with other metals such as cobalt, nickel, and iron. Known for its extremely high hardness and wear resistance, tungsten steel is widely used in applications (sharpening tools and molds) requiring high strength and durability.
At DEK, we have advanced CNC milling machines, CNC lathe, laser cutting machine, EDM machine, etc. and professional machining technology. We specialize in processing various types of tungsten steel, such as tungsten steel YG6, YG8, YG15,YL50,YL10.2,YW1,YT15,YG10X. Whether it's simple cutting or complex precision machining, DEK always meets your diversified needs.
In addition, you can also get high quality surface finishing (plating, painting, etc.) and tight tolerances at DEK. Our precision service ensures high quality parts for the manufacturing, mining, and aerospace industries, and is ideal for all kinds of molds (stamping molds, injection molds, and extrusion molds), mining drill bits, engine parts (turbine blades, nozzles, guide vanes), high-temperature structural components, and more!

TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
Basic Knowledge of Tungsten Steel
What is Tungsten Steel?
Tungsten steel is a type of steel that contains tungsten as its main alloying element. This element, usually present in amounts between 2% and 18% by weight, along with small amounts of molybdenum and vanadium, gives the steel exceptional heat, corrosion, and wear resistance.
Tungsten has been used for a long time in alloying steel, forming a hard carbide and iron tungstite. However, high tungsten content can make the alloy brittle and prone to fracturing instead of bending.

Other Materials
Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is durable, corrosion-resistant, and visually appealing. It's widely used because of its strength, low maintenance, and ability to withstand various temperatures and chemicals.
Aluminum
Aluminum is one of the most commonly used metals in the world because of its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, low cost, and recyclability.
Alloy Steel
Powerful than carbon steel, more wear-resistant, more tear-resistant. Alloy steel is durable and can withstand high-temperature environments.
