Cemented carbides (WC + Me, TiC + Me, TiCN + Me) have an exceptional set of properties, such as:

• high hardness;
• high crack resistance (much higher than ceramic materials);
• high strength (much higher than ceramic materials);
• high density (much higher than ceramic materials).

All these combinations make the material irreplaceable in production of wear-resistant products for the variety of industries.

The main applications are:

• bearings for pumps and compressors;
• rings of mechanical seals;
• elements of valves and stop valves;
• lining for protection from wear and corrosion;
• sorting wheels of various grinding machinery;
• crusher knifes;
• shafts of extruders (screws), nozzles of extruders (cores);
• drags, eyes, dies, thread guides;
• nozzles;
• products for metallurgical industry;
• cutting tools;
• mining tools;
• road machinery tools;
• landing matrices;
• rollers for rolled steel products;
• matrices for the synthesis of diamonds;
• mold inserts.

Cemented carbide types vary by the content of the main (ceramic) phase (WC, TiC, TiCN, their mixture, etc.) and metallic binder (Co, Ni, etc.).
