  • Bearing Steel: Represented by GCr15, this high-carbon chromium bearing steel is favored for its balanced high hardness, excellent wear resistance, and contact fatigue performance. Despite its moderate cold workability and cutting performance, as well as limited weldability, its stable performance makes it widely popular.
  • Tool Steel: As the foundation for cutting tools, gages, and molds, tool steel is renowned for its high hardness, red hardness, and wear resistance. It is subdivided into carbon, alloy, and high-speed tool steels, catering to different hardness and toughness requirements across various applications.
    • Alloy Tool Steel: With enhanced hardenability, hardenability depth, wear resistance, and toughness, alloy tool steel is widely used in the manufacture of cutting tools, molds, and gages. Its hardness range is flexible, meeting the needs of various usage scenarios.
    • High-Speed Tool Steel: Designed for efficient cutting, high-speed tool steel is ideal for high-performance molds, rolls, and high-temperature components due to its red hardness, wear resistance, and high strength. After heat treatment, its hardness can reach HRC63 or above.
    • Cobalt-Containing and Powder High-Speed Tool Steel: The former significantly improves hardness and toughness through the addition of cobalt; the latter, through powder metallurgy technology, achieves uniform distribution of carbides, further enhancing toughness, grindability, and dimensional stability, making it the preferred choice for ultra-hard high-speed tool steel.

Ceramic Materials: Nature’s Gift, Excellent Performance

Zirconia (ZrO2), a natural gift, shines in multiple fields such as ceramics, refractories, electronics, and optics, thanks to its high hardness, strength, toughness, and excellent chemical corrosion resistance. As a pin gage material, zirconia ceramic demonstrates exceptional wear resistance and chemical stability.

Tungsten Carbide Pin Gages: The Pinnacle of Performance, Precision Choice

Tungsten Carbide, created by adding tungsten to alloy steel, imbues pin gages with exceptional performance. Its characteristics are mainly reflected in:

  1. Unmatched Hardness: After heat treatment, Tungsten Carbide pin gages easily achieve a hardness of HRC60 or above, maintaining excellent red hardness even in high-temperature environments, ensuring machining accuracy and efficiency.
  2. Strong Wear Resistance: Under the dual challenges of high pressure and friction, Tungsten Carbide pin gages maintain stable shape and size, extending their service life.
  3. Combination of Strength and Toughness: Facing complex stress environments, Tungsten Carbide pin gages demonstrate strong bearing capacity, ensuring stable tool operation under loads, impacts, vibrations, and bending.
  4. Versatility: Depending on the application requirements, Tungsten Carbide pin gages also possess high-temperature mechanical properties, thermal fatigue resistance, thermal conductivity, and wear-corrosion resistance, meeting diverse machining needs.

Choosing Tungsten Carbide pin gages means selecting a double guarantee of precision and efficiency. We invite you to explore more about the mysteries of Tungsten Carbide pin gages and join hands to create a brilliant future in the machining industry.
