DENSIMET High Density Alloys
Tungsten-based alloys with small amounts of nickel-iron or nickel-copper binders have high densities similar to that of pure tungsten. These tungsten alloys are termed “High Density Alloys” and offer improved machinability compared with pure tungsten. DENSIMET is the trade name of our high density.
Metals with high densities are used in many engineering applications where high inertia forces are required. Examples of applications of DENSIMET are governors. Counterweights, gyroscope rotors, rotating inertia members, balancing weights, etc.
In addition to its high density and high modulus of elasticity, DENSIMET has good electrical and thermal conductivities. These properties make DENSIMET a superior material for the anvil electrodes of hot heading machines(for example , for the hot heading of valves for four-stroke engines etc.)
Another field of application for DENSIMET is based on the fact than the radiation shielding capability of a material is, in general, directly proportional to density. DENSIMET alloys are, there fore, effective shielding materials against gamma rays and X-rays.
High density alloys are excellent materials for damping torsional vibration. This property, combined with its large Young’s modulus, make DENSIMET a highly recommended material for turning shanks, boring bars, grinding quills, pinion type cutter supports, ect.
