ASTM Standard Ground Finish Pure Tungsten Wire Wolfram Wires 0.01mm - 3.0mm

Tungsten has high tensile strength and good creep resistance. However, its high density, poor low-temperature ductility, and strong reactivity in air limit its usefulness. Maximum service temperatures for tungsten range from 1925 to 2500°C (3500 to 4500°F), but surface protection is required for use in air at these temperatures.

Features of Ground Tungsten Wire:

Applications of Tungsten Wires:

 *For producing electric light source parts and electric vaccum components
 *For producing heating elements and refractory parts in high temperature furnaces
 *For producing heating elements used in vaccum metalizing or plating

Advantages of Ground Tungsten Wire:

The Tungsten wire is smooth, free of twists, bends, kinks, curls, and as free of dents, swaging marks, scratches, die marks, laps, seams, splits, slivers, inclusions, bumps, pits, grooves, cracks, and other physical defects Unless black finish is specified, all types of wire have a clean finish, free of graphite, grease, oil, and lubricants. Wire for hooks, supports, springs, anchors, and mesh have a bright smooth surface free of cracks holes, or craters. The requirements for straightness, and coiling and spooling are detailed as well.
