What else can I help you with?
Do tungsten rings contain nickel?
No, tungsten rings do not contain nickel. Tungsten rings are typically made of tungsten carbide, which does not contain nickel. This makes tungsten rings a good option for individuals with nickel allergies.
What are the substances in tungsten?
There are none, tungsten is a pure element so it is made of only tungsten.
Why are filament wires made up of Tungsten?
Tungsten, or wolfram, has the highest melting point of any non-alloy metal and the second highest of all the elements after carbon. When a current passes through a filament that is made from tungsten, the metal heats up to a point that it emits light. The tungsten reaches a very high temperature, noticable because of the bright light it then emits, but it does not melt.
Is tungsten tougher that tungsten carbide?
No. Tungsten is an element, where as tungsten carbide is an alloy, or a mixture of elements (tungsten, nickel, tantalum, niobium, titanium, and chromium). Tungsten carbide is much easier to work into styles and designs, but does not change the hardness of the metal.
What is the difference between a tungsten wedding band and a tungsten-steel wedding band?
Tungsten wedding bands are made with 100% Tungsten. Tungsten Steel is made with 1/2 Tungsten and 1/2 Steel and those are the rings that will turn your fingers green, you dont want that! Tungsten Carbide Rings/Wedding Bands are the best option and are industry standard. They have about 95% Tungsten with a Nickel binder. I have had mine for about a year now and it still looks great, not a single scratch and still shiny! Make sure to get a lifetime warranty because they can not be resized. I got mine here: www.TungstenWorld.com
Is copper wire the same as thugsten wire?
No. Copper wire is made of the element copper. Tungsten wire is made of the element tungsten. Copper wire is made to conduct electricity. Tungsten wire is made for the filament in light bulbs as tungsten does not melt under even very high temperatures.
What is the strongest thin wire available on the market?
The strongest thin wire available on the market is typically made of tungsten or tungsten alloys.
What is the wire in a light bulb?
The wire in a light bulb is typically made of tungsten. When an electric current passes through the wire, it heats up and emits light, creating illumination in the bulb. The tungsten wire has a high melting point, allowing it to withstand the heat generated during operation.
Is carbon wire still in light bulbs?
Modern light bulbs are made of tungsten wire.
What are you hearing when you shake a light bulb?
The piece of coiled wire made of Tungsten (Wolfram) that heats up and glows in the lamp.
Why the lamp lights up?
Incandescence of a finely coiled tungsten wire.
What is the name of the wire in a light bulb?
Filament. Correct; made of tungsten wire in most incandescent bulbs.
What is the thinnest and strongest wire available on the market?
The thinnest and strongest wire available on the market is typically made of tungsten or carbon nanotubes.
Why tungsten metal wire is not used in heater?
A heater does not get hot enough to benefit from the expense of using tungsten wire. Most heaters use either wire made of an alloy called nichrome or plated ceramic heating elements. Heaters generally operate at red or orange heat (i.e. 1409F to 1908F) and can use nichrome wire. Lightbulbs operate at white heat (i.e. greater than 2309F) and use tungsten wire, but tungsten is hard and expensive to make into wire compared to softer metals.
Name of the thin wire inside electric bulb?
The thin wire inside an electric bulb is called a filament. It is usually made of tungsten and becomes hot and emits light when an electric current passes through it.
What is the filament of a light bulb?
It's the small coil of very fine tungsten wire that glows white hot.
What is made up of tungsten?
For starters, the filament in a lightbulb
