Tungsten Carbide Guide Roller

  • Titanium carbide has proved to be a cost-effective material for the manufacture of guide roller for wire rod mills, having low density, excellent anti-oxidation and wear resistance, coupled with relatively good resistance to thermal shock. TiC hard-metals have a relatively simple metallographic structure, but for quality control, the grain size and porosity must be controlled. In particular,porosity is the main quality problem since even vacuum sintering cannot completely overcome the problem of oxygen pick-up. However, the hot isostatic pressure sintering process (HIP), introduced in the late 1980s, significantly improved the final quality of TiCs, by solving the porosity problems.

Advantages of Zigong Xingyu

Zigong Xingyu provide 100% virgin raw material with HIP sintering for all the products, and we have various grade to meet your different applications. Besides, we’re very good at making the guide roller with Tic, which acquire rich experience in this field. The guide roller which is produced by Zigong Xingyu has the good quality of lighter weight, isn’t prone to crack; good performance to extend the service life of bearing; less magnetism and cannot cohere with other metals easily; better wear-resistance, can use many time after fixing. Tungsten carbide guide roller  made by Zigong Xingyu is used and verified in many countries, like German, China…

Application of Tungsten Carbide Guide Roller

Guide Roller is the main expendable parts of the rods and wire rolling equipment in the steel industry. It acts as the guiding and clamping during the rolling procedure to ensure the steel can go through the slot successfully and avoid the steel twines together and tail flick. Additionally, in automatic production line and transition systems, tungsten carbide guide roller is used to cut the photovoltaic silicon wafer in glass or photovoltaic field; the process transition of copper &aluminum foils of lithium battery winder; cut film with high speed in the food packing machines field, because the tungsten carbide can perform well under the corrosion conditions.
