Tungsten is a remarkable metal known for its exceptional properties and wide-ranging applications. It is a dense, hard, and corrosion-resistant element with the highest melting point of all known metals. Tungsten, symbolized by the letter W on the periodic table, is named after the Swedish term tung sten, meaning heavy stone, reflecting its high density.
Additionally, tungsten has excellent electrical conductivity and is used in electrical contacts, particularly in high-power and high-voltage applications. Its hardness and strength make it suitable for various industrial tools, including cutting tools, drill bits, and armor-piercing ammunition.Please contact us at for specific academic pricing.
