HE 395 Tungsten Alloy

HE 395 is a high-density tungsten alloy which is suitable for a broad range of commercial engineering applications.



High Density

HE 395 tungsten alloy offers numerous beneficial performance characteristics. The alloy benefits from excellent hardness, with high ductility and ultimate tensile strength. High-temperature resistance is also superior, and the wear resistance of the material is excellent. HE 395 benefits from good corrosion resistance in both acid and alkaline atmospheres.



Manufacture

Manufactured with a binder of iron and nickel, the tungsten content of HE 395 is 95%. The resulting alloy is magnetic and is suitable for applications where high material density is required. Tungsten is regarded as a safer alternative to lead. Due to higher density, the product holds a better shape, even under extreme conditions.



Typical Applications

Commercial applications for this engineering material include:

  • Welding rods
  • Extrusion dies
  • Radiation shields
  • High-temperature applications
  • Rotor blades
  • Ordnance components

We stock HE 395 in round bar.


Technical Assistance

Our knowledgeable staff and resident metallurgists will be pleased to assist you further on any technical topic. Smiths Metal Centres Limited also boasts an in-house UKAS Accredited Testing Laboratory which is unique within the multi-metal and plastic stockholding sector. We believe this underlines our total commitment to quality and our ethos of being the complete service provider.
