Do you know CERMET (STEEL-BONDED CARBIDE) ?

Cermet is a structural material composed of a ceramic (hard) phase and a metal (or alloy) binder phase. Ceramic phases generally refer to high melting point oxides (such as alumina, beryllia, magnesia, zirconia, etc.) and refractory compounds (such as titanium carbide, tungsten carbide, tantalum carbide, boron carbide, zirconium diboride, titanium diboride and tantalum diboride, etc.). The metal phase is mainly transition elements (iron, cobalt, nickel, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, vanadium, niobium, tantalum,etc.) or their alloys. Cermet not only has the advantages of toughness, high thermal conductivity and good thermal stability of metal, but also has the characteristics of high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and wear resistance of ceramics.

Other shapes could be customized:

We can produce products of other shapes according to customer requirements, such as plate shaped products, drill plate shaped products, ball teeth and special-shaped teeth products, which are applied to stud and insert blocks for breaking hammers, mining tools, ball teeth for construction and drilling teeth for drilling cones.

Titanium Carbide Rod

The titanium carbide cermet rod (TiC rod) belongs to the steel-bonded cemented carbide, which is a kind of compound material based on the steel as the binder phase and used the refractory metal carbide (mainly the titanium carbide and the tungsten carbide) as the hard phase. The TiC rod is the high-hardness and high-strength titanium-based alloy composite material, known for their extreme hardness, high melting point, and excellent wear resistance. These rods can be used in various industrial applications, particularly where high durability and resistance to wear are required, such as for crushing hammer, etc.

Titanium Carbide Guide Roller / Titanium Carbide Guide Wheel

Titanium Carbide guide rollers play an important role in precision machining, wire making and automation industries due to their high hardness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and impact resistance.

In the wire manufacturing industry, carbide rollers are used for drawing steel wire, copper wire and stainless steel wire; for high-speed wire rolling production lines; for high-temperature wire conveying. In CNC（Computer Numerical Control）machine tools and precision machining industries, carbide rollers are used in wire cutting machines to ensure the good performance of molybdenum wires; for grinders to process bearings and gears with high precision; and for the transmission system of optical fiber or CO2 laser equipment to ensure the stability of processing.

We have grade GB10, GB20, TM52, TM60, GT35 and WSG53 Titanium Carbide Rods available, this is a new type of composite material prepared by powder metallurgy method with high manganese steel as the bonding phase and refractory metal carbide - titanium carbide as the hard phase. Its performance characteristics are as follows: 

1. Good weldability and castability. The steel bonded alloy matrix is a type of high manganese steel, which exists as a single austenite phase at room temperature and has high strength, which is beneficial for improving the resistance to thermal stress during casting. It can be welded with ordinary high manganese steel electrodes or connected to the substrate through casting, which is simple to operate and easy to produce, and can reduce manufacturing costs and shorten production cycles.

2. High hardness and wear resistance. A large amount of refractory metal carbides (titanium carbide) are dispersed in steel bonded alloys, which have high hardness; At the same time, the matrix is high manganese steel with work hardening characteristics, which greatly improves the wear resistance of the product. 

3. Excellent cost-effectiveness. Compared with tungsten cobalt hard alloy, steel bonded alloy has a low density (about 6.0g/cm3, which is 40% of tungsten cobalt hard alloy) and has a good cost-effectiveness advantage.

Titanium Carbide Rod has their own unique comprehensive performance advantages due to their unique performance characteristics. This excellent comprehensive performance has broad application prospects in industries such as impact and crushing tools, mining, cement, and construction.
