Understanding the Correct Saw Tip for Your Cutting Tool
Key Characteristics for Optimal Cutting Performance
The decision between tungsten carbide and cermet can significantly impact your tool’s performance, durability, and efficiency. Both materials offer unique advantages and challenges. Tungsten carbide, known for its exceptional hardness and wear resistance, is popular for heavy-duty cutting tasks such as interrupted cutting. Consequently, cermet, a composite material made of ceramic and metallic components, provides excellent heat resistance and a smoother finish.
Hyperion is sharing materials science expertise in a comprehensive guide with key insights into material hardness, wear resistance, heat resistance, impact resistance, welding, and galling resistance to support toolmakers in selecting the best material. Understanding these factors is crucial for toolmakers to optimize cutting performance. Explore the key benefits and limitations of tungsten carbide and cermet, including practical examples of how these materials are used in various industries to achieve exceptional cutting results.
