Types of tungsten Carbide Button
Tungsten Carbide Button are mainly composed of hard compounds of refractory metals (e.g. WC) and powder of bonding metals (e.g. Co or Ni), pressed and sintered by powder metallurgy method, which are characterized by high hardness, high strength and good wear-resisting performance.They are widely used in various engineering fields. There are various types of cemented carbide button, which can be divided into the following main types according to different shapes, uses and working environments:
Conical ball button: the spherical head tapers into a tip. Commonly used in mechanical systems that require precise transmission, such as automobile transmissions and industrial mechanical devices. In addition, conical ball button are also used to set rock drilling percussion bits, down-the-hole bits, and tine bits for oil rigs, which are suitable for medium-hard rock formations.
Wedge-shaped button: have a wide, flat shape. Suitable for applications requiring large contact areas and stable transmission, such as heavy machinery and equipment and lifting mechanisms. Wedge button are also commonly used to set shaped down hole drill bits and tooth wheel drill bits, which are suitable for soft rock formations with high drilling speed and low tooth breakage.
Coal cut-off button: designed for coal mining machinery, can effectively break coal in underground coal mining operations. Improve the efficiency of coal mining.
Road digging button: the spherical head can effectively excavate soil and stone materials. Commonly used in road construction and maintenance to make the road project more smoothly.
Flat top button: the spherical head is in the shape of a flat top. Suitable for machining fields that require smooth cutting and precise processing, such as CNC lathes and milling machines. Also, flat-top button are suitable for tooth wheel drills, diamond drills, gouge stabilizers, etc.
Sharp claw button: sharp spherical heads. Usually used in geological drilling and mining, they can effectively penetrate underground rocks and ores.
Spoon shaped button: shaped like a spoon. They are used in engineering fields that require digging and mixing, such as concrete mixers and excavators. Spoon shaped button can also be used to set the tooth wheel drill bit to break the rock by cutting, suitable for high speed drilling in soft rock formations.
Mushroom button: spherical head in the shape of a dome. Commonly used for mechanical devices that need to be gripped and held in place, such as the tracks of tractors and excavators.
