Why Industrial Grade Tungsten Alloy is Most Preferred for the Military Uses?

by Global Tungstens Welcome to Weison Advanced Materials!
The military has stopped producing so-called green training games because studies revealed that the key components of a bullet may be more toxic than ever before. Tungsten alloy was introduced to weapons and equipment as an alternative to depleting uranium or DIY.  There are so many types of weapons you will find today that use Tungsten.



Available Weapons Manufactured using Tungsten Alloy

·   GNU-44 Viper attack missile
·    130-round-per-square matrix anti missile gun
·    120mm anti-tank artillery shells
·    Armored piercing 308 M993 rifle bullet
·    120mm M1028’s lethal bullet fired by Abrams tank
·     Intensive inert metal explosives

The Advantages of Tungsten Alloy for Military Defense

With its high density, Tungsten alloy is the ideal metal for military defense. Tungsten is non-toxic and environmentally friendly material. Tungsten alloy cubes for military defense can easily replace lead in most cases. Having more concentrated weight means having more control to achieve the center of mass that you are targeting. Owning to its great hardness and resistance to high temperature, Tungsten alloy has been increasingly adopted in military defense today. At present, Tungsten alloy cubes for military defense sector is available in various sizes. So, why’s that and what sorts of advantages associated with Tungsten alloy for military defense.

Benefits of Using Tungsten Alloy in Military Defense System
  •          High density
  •          High ductility
  •          Extreme hardness
  •         High melting point
  •          Lower vapor pressure
  •          Good modules of elasticity
  •          Superior wearing resistance
  •          High temperature resistance
  •          High ultimate tensile strength
  •          Environment protection standard
  •          High absorption capacity against x-rays and gamma rays

The choice for extremely dense metals is still limited. Of all these elemental choices, Tungsten is the only practical element for use in most density driven applications. Tungsten alloy is extremely hard and durable which is why it is so useful in so many different industries including the military. The Tungsten alloy family has plenty of industrial applications as well because of the strength of this metal. So, finding ways to replace other metals used during the varying application with Tungsten alloy is considered a great investment by the equipment manufacturers.

The use of Tungsten metal is extremely important within various industries across the globe. If your industry requires custom Tungsten alloy products, contact Weison AdvancedMaterials Co. Ltd – the global leader in manufacturing and supplying industrial-use proposed Tungsten alloy products.
