What are the uses and characteristics of pure tungsten rods?

Pure tungsten rods are widely used in many fields due to their unique physical and chemical properties. The following are the main uses and features of pure tungsten rods.

Application of Pure tungsten rod

Electronic industry: pure tungsten rod can be drawn into filaments, used to manufacture filament in electric light bulbs, electronic tubes and other equipment and so on.

Aerospace: Due to its high melting point and good high temperature resistance, it is used to manufacture certain key components of aerospace spacecraft .

 Military field: In the military, pure tungsten rods can be used as armor-piercing weapons, using its high density and high hardness to penetrate the target .

Lighting industry: Pure tungsten rods are also used to manufacture filaments in lighting equipment, because the melting point of tungsten is very high and suitable for working in high temperature environment.

Other applications: Pure tungsten rods are also used to manufacture support lines, import lines, meter printing pins, various electrodes and quartz furnaces ;

Features of pure tungsten

High melting point: The pure tungsten rod has a very high melting point, the highest of all non-alloy metals, which allows it to work stably in extreme high temperature environments .

Good electrical and thermal conductivity: Pure tungsten rods have good electrical and thermal conductivity, which is very important for applications requiring an efficient transmission of current and heat .

Low thermal expansion coefficient: The pure tungsten rod has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, which means that its size changes less when the temperature changes, which helps to maintain the stability of the precision equipment.

High hardness and high strength: The pure tungsten rod is very hard and has a high elastic modulus, which makes it ideal for making components that need to withstand high stress.

Corrosion resistance: the pure tungsten rod has good corrosion resistance, and can be used for a long time in a variety of chemical environments without corrosion

Pure tungsten rods play an important role in many fields due to their excellent physical and chemical properties. These features make pure tungsten rods an indispensable material in many high-tech and industrial applications.
