Tungsten is a shiny, silvery-white metal. Tungsten was used extensively for the filaments of old-style incandescent light bulbs, but these have been phased out in many countries.

Tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals and is alloyed with other metals to strengthen them. Tungsten and its alloys are used in many high-temperature applications, such as arc-welding electrodes and heating elements in high-temperature furnaces.

Tungsten carbide is immensely hard and is very important to the metal-working, mining, and petroleum industries. It is made by mixing tungsten powder and carbon powder and heating to 2200°C. It makes excellent cutting and drilling tools, including a new ‘painless’ dental drill that spins at ultra-high speeds. The anatomic mass of Tungsten is 183.84 and the melting point is 3410.0 °C (3683.15 K, 6170.0 °F). The density is 19 and the crystal is Cubic. Besides sputtering targets, we also can offer Tungsten powder, bar, sheet, foil, disc, ribbon, and filaments.
