Where Is Tungsten Carbide Powder Used?
Tungsten carbide powder is widely used in hardfacing, overlay welding, mining, oil and gas drilling, road construction, cutting tool manufacturing, electronics, powder metallurgy, and metal-matrix composites. It helps produce wear-resistant coatings, drilling bits, cutting tools, dies, punches, and industrial components designed to withstand abrasion, erosion, and demanding operating conditions.
02
Mining & Oil and Gas Drilling
Tungsten carbide powder is used in drilling bits, stabilizers, wear pads, and other equipment exposed to abrasive rock and harsh operating conditions. Coarse grades are commonly selected for applications requiring enhanced wear protection.
03
Road Construction & Earthmoving
The powder is used in wear-resistant coatings and hardfacing for cutting edges, ground-engaging tools, and earthmoving equipment. It helps components withstand abrasive soil, gravel, and aggregate materials.
04
Cutting Tools
Fine-grade tungsten carbide powder is used to manufacture cutting tool inserts, end mills, drills, and other precision tools, often through powder metallurgy with a metallic binder such as cobalt. It provides the hardness and wear resistance needed for demanding machining operations.
05
Electronics & Circuit Board Manufacturing
Very fine tungsten carbide grades are used in the production of specialized miniature drills and precision tooling for electronics manufacturing. These tools support accurate drilling and resistance to wear during repeated operations.
06
Powder Metallurgy
Tungsten carbide powder is used to produce dies, punches, and wear-resistant industrial components through controlled powder processing and sintering. The resulting parts are suitable for applications requiring high hardness and durability.
07
Metal-Matrix Composites
Tungsten carbide powder is incorporated into selected metal-matrix composites, overlays, and castings to improve resistance to abrasion and erosion. It is commonly chosen for components operating in demanding industrial environments.

What Is Tungsten Carbide Powder?
Tungsten carbide powder is a compound of tungsten and carbon (WC) in powder form. It is one of the hardest industrial materials, far harder than steel, and stays hard at high temperatures. It is not the same as tungsten metal powder.
On its own, WC powder is used for hardfacing and wear overlays. Mixed or sintered with a metal binder such as cobalt (WC-Co) or cobalt-chromium (WC-CoCr), it becomes the base of cutting tools, mining bits, Tungsten Carbide Coating, and thermal spray coatings.
Types of Tungsten Carbide Powder
| Type | What it is | Best for |
| Standard tungsten carbide powder | Fine WC, 0.8-50 µm, with carefully controlled carbon content and uniform lots | Cutting tools, inserts, powder metallurgy, sintered parts |
| Macrocrystalline tungsten carbide | Large single-crystal WC, classified by mesh and made by special carburization | Hardfacing, drilling and mining bits, wear overlays |
| Crushed tungsten carbide | Sintered WC hardmetal that has been crushed and screened, 200 mesh to 1/4 inch | Hardfacing rods, wear plates, matrix tools |
| Cast tungsten carbide | Mix of WC and W₂C phases, made by casting molten carbide and quenching rapidly | Oil drilling, hardfacing, abrasion-resistant overlays |
Tungsten Carbide Powder Grades & Particle Sizes
| Grades | Particle size range | Typical use |
| ASB 30 | 30 - 60 Mesh | Coarse hardfacing, wear plates, drilling |
| ASB 60 | 60 - 100 Mesh | Hardfacing rods, overlays |
| ASB 100 | 100 - 200 Mesh | Overlay welding, wear parts |
| ASB 200 | 200 - 300 Mesh | Fine overlays, metal-matrix mixes |
| ASB 300 | 300 - 400 Mesh | Fine wear coatings, powder metallurgy |
| ASB 400 | 400 - 600 Mesh | Very fine wear and sintering applications |
Key Features & Benefits
- Extreme hardness: Resists abrasion and wear far beyond steel.
- Four powder types: Choose the form that matches your process.
- Wide size range: From fine micron powder to coarse mesh grades.
- Controlled carbon content: Standard WC lots are blended for uniform quality.
- Heat resistant: Holds its hardness at working temperature.
- Consistent batches: Controlled physical and chemical properties for repeatable results.
- Bulk packing: 25 kg, 50 kg, and 1-ton jumbo bags.
- Custom specifications: Size and grade made to your needs.
Tungsten Carbide Powder for Thermal Spray (HVOF & Plasma)
Thermal spray guns normally use agglomerated or sintered WC-Co or WC-CoCr powder, in a narrow size range such as 15-45 µm, so the powder flows and melts evenly. Plain WC powder (standard, crushed, macrocrystalline or cast) is mainly a hardfacing and wear-material feedstock.
If you need HVOF or plasma coating powder, tell us your coating specification, and we will confirm the right grade. See our Tungsten Carbide Coating, HVOF Gun and Powder Feeder pages for the full process.
