Tungsten-Copper Rods

Tungsten-Copper (Tungsten-Copper, CuW, or WCu) is a mixture of copper and tungsten. As copper and tungsten are not mutually soluble, the material is composed of distinct particles of one metal dispersed in a matrix of the other one. The microstructure is therefore rather a metal matrix composite instead of a true alloy.

The Tungsten Copper Rods manufacturers in India material combines the properties of both metals, resulting in a material that is heat-resistant, ablation-resistant, highly thermally and electrically conductive, and easy to machine.

Tungsten Copper manufacturers in India parts are made from the Tungsten-Copper Rods  composite by pressing the tungsten particles into the desired shape, sintering the compacted part, then infiltrating with molten copper. Sheets, rods, and bars of the composite mixture are available as well. Subham Metals is leading at Tungsten Copper Rods suppliers in India and Tungsten Copper Rods manufacturers in India.

Commonly used Tungsten Copper Rods suppliers in India is a mixtures contains 10–50 wt.% of copper, the remaining portion being mostly tungsten. The typical properties is dependent on its composition. The mixture with less wt.% of copper has higher density, higher hardness, and higher resistivity. The typical density of CuW90, with 10% of copper, is 16.75 g/cm³ and 11.85 g/cm³ for CuW50 . CuW90 has higher hardness and resistivity of 260 HB kgf/mm² and 6.5 μΩ.cm than CuW50.
