Product Description

Thick-section tungsten carbide plate in 100 × 100 × 60 mm, pressed from 100% virgin WC powder and densified in a high-pressure HIP sintering furnace. Designed as sectioning stock: one block yields multiple die segments, EDM blocks or wear inserts with identical microstructure throughout the full 60 mm section — no density gradient, no hidden porosity, no mid-cut deformation.

Key Features

100% Virgin Raw Material Full traceability from powder lot to finished block
HIP Pressure Sintering Pore-free structure through the entire section, not just the surface
Low Internal Stress Controlled cooling keeps blocks stable during wire-EDM sectioning
High Mechanical Properties Hardness HRA 85.5–92.5, TRS up to 2,850 N/mm², depending on grade
Stock Availability Common sizes and grades ship fast; custom sizes pressed to order
Optional Finishing All-six-faces grinding (±0.02 mm), mirror polishing, pre-cut profiling
Grade Quick Pick
YG8: All-round sectioning
YG15 / YG15C: Stamping & forming dies
YG20C: Cold-heading, max toughness

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is HIP pressure sintering crucial for 60 mm thick carbide plates?

Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) subjects the tungsten carbide to uniform high gas pressure and temperature, eliminating internal voids and micro-porosity throughout the entire 60 mm thickness. This ensures homogeneous density from core to surface, preventing tool failure during wire-EDM operations.

Will the block deform or crack during wire-EDM sectioning?

No. Our controlled sintering and specialized cooling cycles substantially reduce internal residual stress. This ensures superior dimensional stability and straightness without mid-cut pinching or deformation during deep wire-EDM cutting.

Which grade is recommended for stamping and forming applications?

YG15 and YG15C are the standard choices for stamping and forming dies, providing an optimal balance of hardness and impact strength. For heavy-duty cold-heading with higher impact loads, YG20C is recommended for maximum fracture toughness.

What precision tolerances can be achieved on the finishing service?

We provide comprehensive pre-finishing capabilities, including all-six-faces surface grinding within a precision tolerance of ±0.02 mm, mirror-like polishing, and custom wire-EDM contour pre-cutting prior to delivery.

Can you produce custom carbide plate sizes and custom formulations?

Yes. Beyond the standard 100 × 100 × 60 mm stock, we manufacture bespoke square, rectangular, and round plates. With more than 80 in-house formulation patents, we also tailor binder content and grain size to suit your specific wear and impact environments.
