The unique characteristicsof cemented carbide
Cemented carbide (WC) is one of
the most successful composite
engineering materials ever
produced. Its unique combination of
strength, hardness and toughness
satisfy the most demanding
applications.
The potential to vary cemented
carbide's composition ensures
material versatility.This allows the
creation of tailormade solutions to
component wear and failure
encountered in engineering and
domestic environments.
Combining Sandvik expertise
together with the unique properties
of cemented carbide ensures the
right solution for wear, deformation,
fracture and corrosion problems.
Sandvik partners with their
customers to create productivity
solutions in the most demanding
applications.

One example of how our materials
challenge conventional thinking is
our unique ability to produce
components that fulfill all technical
requirements while being a fraction
of the size of a similar component
produced in steel.
Cemented carbide was not
commonly perceived as a
automotive material. In reality,
cemented carbide and cermets
offer a wide range of properties
making them very well suited for
the new challenges of the
automotive industry.
The unique and flexible composition of cemented carbide meets the needs
of a wide range of automotive applications.This allows Sandvik to supply
tailormade cemented carbidesolutions that meet specific part requirements.
Its properties of modern powder metallurgical production allows
large and economical series with the right
quality and tolerances.
Think hard, think small, think Sandvik carbide for
Consider cementedcarbide in the earlydesign stage of yourcomponent and seethe significantadvantages in cost,weight andefficiency
low friction coefficient,low energy losses
high hardness and high Hertz pressure, no surface damage
extreme working conditions,oxidation, corrosion & thermal resistance
high compressive strength / high rigidity,no high loads deformation
wear resistance,long product life

The Sandvik Group, established in 1862and headquartered in Sandviken, is one ofSweden’s largest export companies withmore than 300 wholly owned subsidiariesand representation in 130 countries. TheGroup has annual sales of SEK 63 billion,with 39,000 employees. More than 90% ofsales are to customers outside Sweden.Sandvik is highly research oriented.Investments in R&D related to newproducts and processes amount toapproximately 4% of invoiced sales.
THE SANDVIK GROUPThe Sandvik Group’s operations are based on three core businessareas: Sandvik Tooling, Sandvik Materials Technology and SandvikMining and Construction. Sandvik Hard Materials, a part of SandvikTooling, supplies a wide range of cemented carbide products frommanufacturing plants around the world.
FULLY FINISHED TOOLSSandvik Hard Materials’ specialties include fully finished tools suchas carbide rotary cutters for the non-wovens industry, can toolingfor the can industry and rolls for the steel industry.
ENGINEERED COMPONENTSCemented carbide is often the only material that can satisfactorilywithstand wear in addition to deformation, impact, heavy load, highpressure, corrosion and high temperature. In this area, SandvikHard Materials provides the industry with carbide componentssuch as seal rings, bearings, pistons, valves and nozzles.
CEMENTED CARBIDE TOOL BLANKSSandvik Hard Materials supplies the toolmaking industry with blanksor semifinished products for cutting and forming metals, compositematerials, PCB industry, wood, bricks, concrete and rock. Tool blanksare available in the form of rods, saw tips, drill tips, discs and insertsin designs and dimensions based on industry standards.
