Titanium Carbide Rod

A Titanium Carbide Rod is a steel bonded alloy and could be a Titanium Carbide Insert used in a crushing hammer. Titanium carbide (TiC) rods are solid components made from titanium carbide material, known for their extreme hardness, high melting point, and excellent wear resistance. These rods are used in various industrial applications, particularly where high durability and resistance to wear are required.

ADVANTAGES

We have grade GB10, GB20, TM52, and TM60 Titanium Carbide Rods available, this is a new type of composite material prepared by powder metallurgy method with high manganese steel as the bonding phase and refractory metal carbide - titanium carbide as the hard phase. Its performance characteristics are as follows:

1. Good weldability and castability. The steel bonded alloy matrix is a type of high manganese steel, which exists as a single austenite phase at room temperature and has high strength, which is beneficial for improving the resistance to thermal stress during casting. It can be welded with ordinary high manganese steel electrodes or connected to the substrate through casting, which is simple to operate and easy to produce, and can reduce manufacturing costs and shorten production cycles.

2. High hardness and wear resistance. A large amount of refractory metal carbides (titanium carbide) are dispersed in steel bonded alloys, which have high hardness; At the same time, the matrix is high manganese steel with work hardening characteristics, which greatly improves the wear resistance of the product.

3. Excellent cost-effectiveness. Compared with tungsten cobalt hard alloy, steel bonded alloy has a low density (about 6.0g/cm3, which is 40% of tungsten cobalt hard alloy) and has a good cost-effectiveness advantage.

Titanium Carbide Rod has their own unique comprehensive performance advantages due to their unique performance characteristics. This excellent comprehensive performance has broad application prospects in industries such as impact and crushing tools, mining, cement, and construction.
