Overview of Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade

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 Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade

  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.

FAQs of Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade

Q: How is Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade manufactured?
A: Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade 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 Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade recyclable?
A: Yes, Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade 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 Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade compare to steel in terms of hardness and toughness?
A: While Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade 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 Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade 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 Graphtec blade cb09 tungsten carbide plotter knife/carbide cutting knife/carbide engraving blade 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.
