Tungsten carbide is widely used in many areas with its excellent wear resistance and mechanical strength. Its application can be divided into several parts. For example, it is used to make hardened tips and cutting edges for drills, end mills, taps, reamers and other tooling used in material removal processes. Moreover, applications such as bulldozer blades, excavator teeth, conveyor skip plates and chute liners often use tungsten carbide. In addition, forming and stamping dies used to shape metals and plastics incorporate tungsten carbide to withstand high pressures and repetitive use. Besides, tungsten carbide is also used as the composition of joint replacement components like knee and hip prosthetics for its biocompatibility. Furthermore, it is also an important material for oil and gas drilling operations, offering robust protection to drill bits when drilling through hard rock formations underwater. Moreover, wind turbine components often have tungsten carbide coating or inserts to protect wear surfaces in gear systems and blade pitch mechanisms. In addition, tungsten carbide is also widely used for downhole drilling tools like coring bits, underreamers and industrial core drills. Last but not least, it is also processed into particles and grains for abrasives, and is used in jewelry industry to produce decorative components for rings, cufflinks and pendants.
