Tungsten is useful for glass-to-metal seals since the thermal expansion is about the same as borosilicate glass
tungsten and its alloys are used extensively for filaments for electric lamps, electron and television tubes, and for metal evaporation work
electrical contact points for car distributors
X-ray targets
windings and heating elements for electrical furnaces
missile and high-temperature applications
high-speed tool steels and many other alloys contain tungsten
the carbide is important to the metal-working, mining, and petroleum industries
calcium and magnesium tungstates are widely used in fluorescent lighting
tungsten salts are used in the chemical and tanning industries
tungsten disulphide is a dry, high-temperature lubricant, stable to 500°C
tungsten bronze and other tungsten compounds are used in paints
TV tubes (electron tubes)
Nozzles for the rockets engines, for example, are made from tungsten steel.
You can use ordinary tungsten to mark
lightbulbs?
TIG welding uses tungsten electrodes. Some electrodes also contain Thorium some also contain Zirconiun some are pure Tungsten. Each has its own applications.
Tungsten is a chemical element with symbol W and an atomic number of 74. It is mainly used in making electric light filaments. It is also a major component in cemented carbides and high speed steels.
Steels rival, Tungsten's legacy
This is like asking 'how much tungsten do I have?' Perhaps you are asking about density or some other property of tungsten.
There are many uses for tungsten: Incandescent light bulbs: It makes up the filament of the bulb. It is used in the bulb because it can withstand extreme temperatures. Jewelry: The high scratch resistance and dark shine of tungsten makes it a very popular choice among men for rings and bracelets. Abrasive Coating: Many tools subject to cutting hard metals in harsh conditions are coated with tungsten. The high melting point and hardness of tungsten make it a valuable asset to machinery and cutting tools.
W is the chemical symbol of wolfram (in some countries it is called tungsten).
Tungsten has a wide range of uses across industries due to its high melting point, hardness, and good electrical conductivity. Some common uses include in light bulb filaments, electrical contacts, heating elements, and as an alloying element in tools, aerospace components, and high-performance sports equipment.
Tungsten is within the family of Transition metals.
its used in light bulbs and high power tools that are used in high heated areas.
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.
