Grades

Cobalt. Nickel. Tantalum. We offer them all. In fact, we produce more than 50 carbide grades in a wide range of binder concentrations and particle sizes. We also lead the industry with the tightest overall material specifications.

Our tungsten carbide grades use cobalt binders ranging in concentrations from 3% to 30% and offer nominal particle sizes from 0.55 microns to 10 microns. The superfine carbides are exceptional for applications requiring sharp edges. In addition, we offer a broad range of tungsten carbide with tantalum to reduce galling in your metal-forming operations.

We are a major producer of nickel carbides for environmental conditions where corrosion, oxidation and wear push your tooling to the limit. We maintain the purity of these carbides through a dedicated nickel room and nickel production processes that eliminate the potential for contamination.
