Different Grades of Tungsten Carbide We Offer
Innovative Carbide knows that every tungsten carbide application is unique. We offer a wide range of superior quality proprietary grades to meet your specific needs.
Using a thorough and exacting process for manufacturing our tungsten carbide grades, we pay strict attention to detail. This ensures excellence from conception to the final product.
We guarantee the highest material quality and consistency of our products. We do this with our ISO 9001:2015 Certification manufacturing process so that our customers get the industry’s best quality carbide available.
Our Dedication to Quality
Innovative Carbide uses a unique no-wax process to improve the carbide die manufacturing process. By eliminating the need for adding wax powder to the carbide powder, we can reduce issues like carbon control problems, porosity, shrinkage, and improve consistency and cost savings when grinding.
Traditional approaches use wax and binders to improve the strength of the powder compact.
With our process, we prevent issues like:
- Carbon control or “free-carbon” that could lead to cracking and chipping
- Increased porosity that weakens the final product
- Distortions and size/dimension variation problems
