Tungsten alloy tube
High density tungsten alloys are usually composed of tungsten-nickel-iron or tungsten-nickel-copper or even tungsten-nickel-copper-iron. Some tungsten alloys have other metallic elements, such as cobalt and molybdenum, added. It can be made into various shapes. High specific gravity tungsten alloy tubes are usually used to make nuclear radiation shielding parts, military products, such as as counterweight parts used in oil drilling counterweight, etc.
Application of high gravity tungsten alloy tube
Due to the combination of high density (60% denser than lead), good mechanical strength and low thermal expansion, good corrosion resistance, high radiation absorption capacity (higher than lead), simple business cycle and high strength, high density tungsten alloy tubes are suitable materials for the fabrication of radiation shielding parts. High specific gravity tungsten alloy tubes provide better radiation shielding than lead, while reducing the size and thickness of the shielding parts and vessels. Compared with lead and depleted uranium, tungsten alloys also have the advantage of being non-toxic and non-polluting. High specific gravity tungsten alloy tube is mainly used to shield medicine bottles and syringes.
In addition, high gravity tungsten alloys are used as counterweight parts in oil drilling because of their other special properties, such as high density, high impact resistance and crack resistance.
High density tungsten alloy tubes can be supplied according to international standards, and can also be provided according to customer requirements.
High specific gravity tungsten alloy tubes are popular because of their high density, high temperature resistance and other advantages.
