Overview of C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips

Tungsten Carbide (WC) is a hard, brittle, and corrosion-resistant material composed of equal parts tungsten and carbon atoms. It is a popular member of the cemented carbide family, known for its incredible hardness, strength, and thermal stability. Tungsten carbide is often used in industrial applications requiring high wear resistance and the ability to maintain sharp edges, even under extreme conditions.

Features of C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips

  1. Exceptional Hardness: With a Mohs hardness of 9.0 to 9.5, tungsten carbide is one of the hardest materials available, second only to diamond.

  2. High Density: Its density ranges from 14.5 to 15.6 g/cm³, providing substantial mass in a small volume, beneficial for applications like balancing and weighting.

  3. Thermal Stability: Retains its hardness up to temperatures around 1000°C, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.

  4. High Young’s Modulus: Possesses a high modulus of elasticity, indicating stiffness and resistance to deformation under load.

  5. Brittleness: Although extremely hard, tungsten carbide is also brittle, requiring careful handling to avoid chipping or fracturing.

  6. Chemical Resistance: Resistant to corrosion from most acids except for hydrofluoric acid and strong alkalis, and is not attacked by most organic materials.

Parameters of C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips

The C120 YG8 Tungsten carbide tip tool is used in the automotive industry to guide the application of zincalloy alloy (ZAL) welding tips. The tool has a cylindrical shape with a 3/4-inch tip and a predrilled geometry for installation on the end of the tips.

For the ZAL welding tips, the C120 YG8 tip tool uses ZAL adhesive and a crosshead based bonnet design. The tip contains a carbon fiberNi withstand rod which is set into the axis of the electrode to provide stability during the welding process. Additionally, it features a high-strength wire that guarantees a long-lasting bond between the two materials.

Other parameters of the tool include:

1. Tip type: There are different types of tip options available such as hybrid tip, small-end tip, and fiber point tip.

2. Tapered edge: The tip has an irregular, sharp edge that allows for precise selection and manipulation of the material during welding.

3. Tool speed: The tool has a variable speed range from 250 to 3,000 rotate/s to allow quick and precise metal removal during.

4. Adhesive strength: The tool has a strong adhesive strength that ensures strong bonds between the material and the electrode during the welding process.

5. resistance: The tool is designed with high resistance against corrosion to minimize damage to the cutting edges during the process.

6. Graphite fiber coating: The tool also includes graphite fiber coating for improved adhesion between the metal and electrode.

7. Overheating protection: To protect the tips from overheating, the tool has a predrilled safety glass shield on the tip.

Overall, the C120 YG8 Tungsten carbide tip tool is a versatile tool used in various applications, including plastic and metal fabrication, shipbuilding, and automotive manufacturing. Its specifications and capabilities ensure efficient and reliable guidance for the installation and use of ZAL welding tips.

FAQs of C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips

Q: How is C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips manufactured?
A: C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips is typically produced by mixing tungsten carbide powder with a binder metal (commonly cobalt), pressing the mixture into shape, and then sintering it at high temperatures to form a solid, tough material.

Q: Is C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips recyclable?
A: Yes, C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips is highly recyclable. Scrap and worn-out tungsten carbide tools can be collected, reground, and reused or reprocessed back into tungsten carbide powder.

Q: How does C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips compare to steel in terms of hardness and toughness?
A: While C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips is much harder than steel, making it suitable for cutting and drilling harder materials, it is less tough, meaning it is more prone to chipping or breaking under impact compared to steel.

Q: Can C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips be machined easily?
A: No, due to its extreme hardness, tungsten carbide is very difficult to machine using conventional methods. It often requires specialized grinding or electrical discharge machining (EDM) techniques.

Q: Is C120 YG8 Tungsten Carbide tipped tool welding insert brazing tips dangerous to health?
A: In its solid form, tungsten carbide is generally safe to handle. However, during grinding or machining, dust containing tungsten carbide and cobalt binder can be released, which can be hazardous if inhaled. Proper protective measures are necessary.
