High-density tungsten alloys (WHD) machinable, Density 17 - 18.5 g/cm³

High-density tungsten alloys according to ASTM B-777 made of WNiFe and WNiCu, machinable. Used, for example, as weights or for radiation shielding. Rods or parts made to drawing. In contrast to pure tungsten, these high-density tungsten alloys made from tungsten with the alloying elements nickel, iron, copper, and molybdenum are easy to machine. Drilling, milling, or threading is possible. The higher the tungsten content, the higher the density but also the price. Their density ranges from 17 to 18.5 g/cm³, which is quite close to that of tungsten.
