  • Product Definition

Tungsten alloy disc is circular metal plates made primarily from high-percentage tungsten (typically 90–97%), alloyed with elements such as nickel (Ni), iron (Fe), or copper (Cu). They are manufactured through powder metallurgy, hot isostatic pressing (HIP), and precision machining processes. Based on thickness, they can be classified into thin discs, thick discs, and high-precision round plates.

  • Key Performance Features
Property Description
High Density Typically 17.0–18.8 g/cm³, allowing compact yet heavy design.
Excellent Mechanical Properties High strength and hardness with outstanding impact and wear resistance.
Superior Thermal Stability Maintains structural integrity under temperatures exceeding 2000°C.
Good Machinability Supports precision turning, grinding, drilling, and polishing.
Outstanding Radiation Shielding Highly effective against X-rays and gamma rays, superior to lead.
Environmentally Safe Non-toxic and free of harmful radioactive elements; suitable for medical applications requiring high health standards.
