Wear Applications
Cemented Carbide offers a safer and more dependable solution than any other known material to one of the toughest problems engineers contend with – reliability.
In many cases steel solutions are just not enough to guarantee the required performance, even with treated or coated steels. Then cemented carbide can be an excellent solution with its superior material properties that combines:
• Young modulus three times higher than steels
• High hardness with a toughness higher than ceramics
