Tungsten Carbide blades are known for being sharp and durable. They are wear-resistant, and can be used in a variety of industrial applications where extremely sharp cutting instruments are needed. For example, carbide blades are well suited to cutting reflective materials for plotting and sign making. Although prone to chipping and breakage, when these pitfalls are avoided with the proper engineering, tungsten carbide blades can sustain significant industrial stresses.
Tungsten carbide is less brittle than other metals, and thus can withstand the rigors of constant use easily. At Specialty Blades, we manufacture carbide blades and tungsten carbide blades for a variety of industries. No matter what your application, chances are carbide blades are appropriate for you needs.
