Ua hoʻolālā kūikawā ʻia ka tungsten carbide hard alloy e kūʻē i ka corrosion, abrasion, wear, fretting, sliding wear a me ka hopena i nā hana onshore a me uka a me waho a me nā lako o luna a me lalo o ke kai.

ʻO ka tungsten carbide kahi hui kemika inorganic nona ka nui o nā ʻātoma tungsten a me ke kalapona. ʻO ka tungsten carbide, i ʻike ʻia hoʻi ʻo "cemented carbide", "hard alloy" a i ʻole "hardmetal", he ʻano mea metallurgic nona ka pauka tungsten carbide (kemika formula: WC) a me nā mea hoʻopaʻa ʻē aʻe (cobalt, nickel. etc.). Hiki ke paʻi ʻia a hana ʻia i loko o nā ʻano i hana ʻia, hiki ke wili ʻia me ka pololei, a hiki ke hoʻopaʻa ʻia me a hoʻopili ʻia paha i nā metala ʻē aʻe. Hiki ke hoʻolālā ʻia nā ʻano a me nā papa o ka carbide e like me ka mea e pono ai no ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka noi i manaʻo ʻia, me ka ʻoihana kemika, ka ʻaila a me ke kinoea a me ke kai e like me nā mea hana mining a me nā mea ʻokiʻoki, mold a die, nā ʻāpana ʻaʻahu, a pēlā aku.

Hoʻohana nui ʻia ka tungsten carbide i nā mīkini ʻoihana, nā mea hana pale ʻaʻahu a me ka anti-corrosion. ʻO ka tungsten carbide ka mea maikaʻi loa e pale aku i ka wela a me ka haki i nā mea paʻakikī āpau.

Hoʻohana ʻia nā mea hoʻokomo ʻaʻahu tungsten carbide e ʻoki i loko o ka ʻili kila a me nā plug a wehe i nā ʻōpala i lalo o ka lua. Hiki ke hana ʻia nā ʻano mea hoʻokomo huinahā, poepoe, hapalua poepoe, oval. Hoʻohana ʻia ka mea paʻakikī no ka hoʻopili ʻana i kūkulu ʻia ma ka ʻili. Nā mea hoʻokomo hoʻopaʻa Tungsten Carbide no ka pale ʻana i ka ʻaʻahu o nā ʻāpana wili. Hoʻomoe ʻia nā mea hoʻokomo ma ke ʻano like me kahi mea hoʻokomo maʻamau me ke ʻole o nā kaʻina hana kūikawā e pono ai. Hoʻopili ʻia ka tile carbide e ka carbide cemented coarse-grained, me nā waiwai o ka paʻakikī kiʻekiʻe a me ka ikaika transverse-rupture maikaʻi, a me ke kūpaʻa ʻana i ka corrosion, ke kūʻē i ka waikawa a me ka alkali, ke ola lawelawe lōʻihi. Hana ʻo N&D carbide i nā mea hoʻokomo carbide cemented kiʻekiʻe no nā pads stabilizer.
