Tungsten Carbide Plates
Pressed and sintered tungsten carbide plates in square, rectangular, and strip forms made to customer drawings for use in moulds, cutting tools, and wear parts.

Problems This Family Solves
- Steel or ceramic inserts wear out quickly in high-pressure or abrasive moulding cycles
- Inconsistent plate thickness leads to uneven tool performance and premature failure
- Standard sizes do not match the exact dimensions required for custom tooling or die sets
- Lack of repeatable geometry between batches causes fit and alignment issues in production
- Cutting edges degrade fast when using materials with low hardness or poor wear resistance
Who Buys These Parts
- Mould and die shops requiring inserts and punch cores for high-wear applications
- Tool makers building custom cutting tools and machining inserts
- Manufacturers of wear parts for injection moulding, extrusion, and stamping equipment
- Woodworking and metal cutting equipment builders needing durable cutting blanks
- Engineering teams replacing worn components with exact replacements from a single source
Why These Parts Hold Up
- Pressed on imported equipment and sintered in over-pressure furnaces for consistent density and closed porosity
- Available in standard sizes with defined tolerances; custom sizes made to drawing
- Smooth cutting surface and high hardness allow for high-speed machining with minimal tool wear
- Grades selected based on application load and wear environment, not sold as one-size-fits-all
- Stock items ship 3-5 days after payment; custom items quoted with a stated lead time
Typical Applications
- Mould core inserts for plastic injection and die casting dies
- Punches and inserts in progressive and transfer dies
- Cutting blanks for end mills, saw tips, and rotary burrs
- Wear-resistant plates in extrusion dies and calibrating rolls
- Custom-shaped blanks for special tooling and high-wear components
Industries That Use Tungsten Carbide Plates
Pressed Sintered and Ground In House
Weighing In of Ingredients
Tungsten carbide powder and cobalt binder weighed to the grade formula.
Milling
Powders wet milled so the binder is evenly distributed through the mix.
Spray Drying
The slurry is spray dried into free-flowing granules that press consistently.
Testing
Granulate checked before it is committed to a press run.
Forming
Blanks pressed on imported presses from the mould for that part.
Sintering
Sintered at around 1450 degrees C in an over-pressure furnace to close porosity.
Machining
Ground and finished to the dimensions on the drawing.
Quality Control
Physical properties, shape and tolerance checked, then inspection photographs sent before delivery.
Tungsten Carbide Plates FAQ
Can you make plates to my own drawing?
Yes. OEM and ODM to customer drawings is standard. We accept custom dimensions, shapes, and tolerances.
How long is the lead time?
Stock items ship 3-5 days after payment is received. Customised items are given a delivery time in the quotation.
Which grade should I use for a high-wear mould insert?
Send the service conditions. Lower cobalt grades like YG6 offer higher wear resistance; higher cobalt grades like YG15 handle impact better.
Can I test a sample before ordering in bulk?
Yes. Samples are available for pre-testing. Send the drawing and service conditions and a sample can be quoted.
How are parts checked before shipping?
Physical properties, shape and tolerance are inspected before shipping, and detailed inspection photographs are sent for confirmation before delivery.
Are you a manufacturer or a trading company?
A manufacturer in Zhuzhou, Hunan Province, China, producing tungsten carbide parts for over 15 years.
