C2 Tungsten Carbide Round Rod, Ground, Precision Tolerance, ASTM B777-07, 0.25" Diameter, 12" Length

The C2 tungsten carbide round rod has been ground to achieve the precise shape and size, meets American Society for Testing and Materials International ASTM B777-07 specifications, and has a precision tolerance. The C2 tungsten carbide grade provides high wear resistance, and good corrosion and heat resistance.

Tungsten carbide, also known as carbide, is an extremely hard alloy made from tungsten and carbon that offers high wear resistance as well as good corrosion resistance.

Tensile strength, used to indicate the material's overall strength, is the peak stress it can withstand before it breaks. Corrosion resistance describes the material's ability to prevent deterioration caused by atmosphere, moisture, or other medium. Wear resistance indicates the ability to prevent surface damage caused by contact with other surfaces. Hardness (commonly measured as indentation hardness) describes its resistance to permanent surface deformation.
