The tungsten copper plate merges the unique properties of tungsten and copper. Tungsten has the highest and most extreme melting point among all metals (Tungsten melting point of 3410oc and Copper melting point of 1080 °C). Tungsten also has the highest density of all metals (Tungsten density of 19.25g / cm3 and Copper density of 8.92 g/cm3). Adding to all these properties of tungsten are the excellent thermal properties of copper. Tungsten copper alloy (composition generally ranges from WCu70 ~ WCu50) uniform microstructure, high temperature, and high strength. These alloys are widely used in the military for high-pressure switches and electrical alloys, EDM electrodes, microelectronics, and parts and components in aerospace, avionics, electronics, electrical power, metallurgy, machinery, and even sports equipment. These alloys are also used for electro-mechanical, high arc erosion, and micro-precision engineered parts.

Military High Temperature Materials

Tungsten copper alloys are used as missile components in aerospace applications, such as rocket engine nozzles, gas rudders, and air rudders, as well as in the missile noses. The main requirement for such applications is the ability to withstand extreme temperatures and conditions (between 3000K and 5000K). The alloys are copper-heavy for high-temperature refrigeration sweating and are used in volatile form, as the copper melting point is just 1083 °C. The surface temperature of the tungsten copper alloys is reduced to ensure use in extreme and high temperatures.
