Applications
A tungsten grit application can prolong the life of a component by 3 to 5 times (depending on the application) which can make a substantial difference to running costs.
Ground-engaging tools and equipment used in construction, excavation and earth-moving, is commonly associated with the tungsten hard-facing process. Ground engaging blades/teeth and ripper points on dozers and cat trucks are just some of the numerous applications that this process is used on.
When painted components are subject to hard-facing, the application area is often grit-blasted initially in order to provide a better surface for the tungsten to bind to.
