It is usually used in many chemical and corrosive environments because carbides are typically chemically inert. More stable chemical properties. Carbide material has acid-resistance, alkali-resistant, and even significant oxidation even at high temperatures.

The amount of torsion is two times that of high-speed steel and carbide is the preferred material for high-speed operation applications.

Even at an extremely low temperature, the carbide remains good to wear resistance and provides relatively low friction coefficients without using a lubricant.

Cemented carbide has higher thermal conductivity than that high-speed steel, which increases with the increase of cobalt.

The sintered carbide has a high elastic modulus and the smallest bend is obtained when subjected to a bending force. The bending strength at normal temperature is between 90 and 150 MPa and the higher the cobalt, the higher the anti-bending strength.

Tungsten carbide is an alloy that has the main component of powders including tungsten carbide, titanium carbide, and metal powder such as cobalt, nickel, etc, as an adhesive, obtained through the powder metallurgical method. It is mainly used to make high-speed cutting tools and hard, tough material cutting edges, and high-wear parts for the fabrication of cold dies, and measuring tools.

Some grades of cobalt carbide and cobalt have perfect performance under ultra-high pressure and are very successful in pressure applications of up to 7 million kPa.

Generally, between HRA86 ~ 93, decreases with an increase in cobalt. The wear resistance of the tungsten carbide is its most important feature. In practical applications, carbides are 20-100 times longer than some wear-resistant steel alloys.
