Sylhan mastered the necessary skills and technical expertise to manufacture precision machined pure tungsten products with tight tolerances. Contact us to find out more about our tungsten machining process. Without proper expertise, tungsten is difficult to machine because of its abrasive nature and brittleness. When tungsten is alloyed with thorium, it enhances machining and electron emission for lighting.
Tungsten exhibits typical refractory metal properties with the highest melting temperature of 3420 deg C, and a very low coefficient of thermal expansion allowing for excellent glass-to-metal seals for the lighting and semiconductor Industries. The low vapor pressure properties make it the material of choice for vacuum and semiconductor applications as well as filaments and thoriated tungsten electrodes for short arc and standard lighting applications.
You can also find out more about other refractory metal components and their processes, such as refractory metal precision machined parts and sputtering targets, the PVD sputtering process, and tantalum sputtering targets. At Sylhan, we are commited to excellent service and machining defect free components 100% of the time. We want your experience with us to be exceptional. This is why we have the expert staff and state-of-the-art equipment needed to properly machine the tungsten components and parts you need.
