Brief Introduction to Tungsten Alloy Part

Tungsten heavy alloy having high melting points as well as high specific gravity, tungsten is characterized by good processability. Precise control under the action of external force requires the stability of the object.

A part that is installed for this function for the stability of objects is Balance Weights. Since Balance Weights have the advantage of low volumes in case their specific gravity is higher, alloys containing at least 92% tungsten with high strength and corrosion resistance are required.

Tungsten Counterweight Parts

Counter weights made from our tungsten heavy alloy compensate for oscillations, weight transfers, imbalances and vibrations, create or shift centers of gravity and more generally ensure the optimum balance.Counterbalance weights are crucial components in many different applications. They help reduce the loads that parts are exposed to and consequently increase their service life. Such as:
Aviation and aerospace: Propeller and rotor blades, Aircraft weights
Automotive industry: Crankshaft counterweights/balancing and chassis weights, Vibration dampening governors, Balances of flywheels and turbines
Watch industry: Bobs/weights on watch rotors
Optical industry: Microscopes and measuring instruments

Key Features of Tungsten Alloy Weight

It is ideal for high density applications and also used in radiation shielding
The offered tungsten alloy has low alloying tendency between electrode and work-piece

Tungsten counterweight is widely used in cranes, traction lifts such as elevators, funfair rides and many others.
It is used in many rotating systems to reduce vibrations due to imbalances in the rotating assembly
Light-weight, compact and quick installation design
High tolerance and robust construction

Tungsten Pinewood Derby Weight

For cars with less than one-half of the original block remaining, lead or tungsten weight is generally required. For minimalist cars (very little wood), tungsten is generally needed to attain proper weight. For cars with one-half or more of the block remaining, then steel or zinc will work fine. 

Tungsten is a metal with one of the highest densities. It is 1.7 times heavier than lead. Only gold, platinum, and a few other rare and expensive metals have a similar density. Tungsten is non-toxic and environmentally friendly so it is gaining increased use in weighting applications where lead is not appropriate. For example lead has been banned in many streams, so tungsten is often substituted for lead weight on fishing flies. 

Tungsten Alloy Crankshaft Weight

Tungsten alloy crankshaft weight, also known as tungsten alloy crankshaft balancing, is made from our tungsten heavy alloys. Crankshaft balancing is important to high performance engines in racecars, aircrafts and others. High density tungsten is perfect for crankshaft balancing with limited size and space.

For some engines it is necessary to provide tungsten alloy crankshaft weight for the reciprocating mass of each piston and connecting rod to improve engine balance. These are typically cast as part of the crankshaft but, occasionally, are bolt-on pieces. While counter weights add a considerable amount of weight to the crankshaft, it provides a smoother running engine and allows higher RPM levels to be reached.

Tungsten Weight

The special high specific density characteristics and slight or non-magnetic properties make tungsten ideal for a variety of low volume/high weight applications in the Aerospace industry. Tungsten products are installed in a variety of aircrafts and serve as balance weights in the wing fuselage, vertical (rudder) and horizontal (elevator) stabilizers, in helicopter rotors (bifilars), propellers and Aerospace instruments. The majority of balance weights that  supplies are flight safety products.Tungsten  products have been installed in more than a dozen different types of aircrafts, including the Boeing 747-400, 737, 767, 757, Gulfstream G-150 & G-200 and Sikorsky UH-60 (Black Hawk).

Different Applications of Tungsten Balancing Weight

Balancing weights are crucial components in many different applications. They help reduce the loads that parts are exposed to and consequently increase their service life. Here are a few examples:

Aviation and aerospace: propeller and helicopter blades

Automotive industry: crankshaft counterweights and chassis weights

Watch industry: bobs on watch rotors

Sports equipment: golf clubs

Balancing Weights Made of Tungsten Alloys

Balancing weights made from our tungsten heavy metal  for oscillations, weight transfers, imbalances and vibrations, create or shift centers of gravity and more generally ensure the optimum balance.

Tungsten heavy metal composite materials are used as balancing weights on crankshafts or in balance shafts in formula 1 racing cars or large diesel engines. In addition, due to their high density, high modulus of elasticity and optimized ease of mechanical processing, our tungsten heavy metal alloys are ideally suited for use as damper and absorber components in the drive train. In the aviation and aerospace industries, our tungsten composite material  provide outstanding performance, for example, in propeller and helicopter blades, rudders, radar equipment and avionics systems.

Tungsten Sporting Goods for Firearms and Golf Clubs

Tungsten Heavy Alloy concentrates maximum weight in the smallest possible space. Use in golf clubs and tennis rackets increases the sweet spot size and adds the stability while reducing shock and vibration for increased power and control. Counterbalance fine tuning and inertial masses to shift through center of gravity.

Tungsten Racing weights for Chassis and Skid Plates

Tungsten Heavy Alloy is superior to lead in terms of durability, dimensional stability, density and low toxicity. Tungsten Heavy Alloy does not suffer from the radioactivity or high chemical reactivity of depleted uranium.

Tungsten Alloy is used by professional racing teams to fine-tune the chassis in a variety of racing forums. Tungsten Heavy Alloy offers up to 50% more weight in a given volume, with the added advantages of direct attachment via threaded holes and the freedom from deformation.

The benefit of Tungsten Golf Weigh

Tungsten Heavy Alloy has been the preferred material as counterbalance weight for the golf. Tungsten Heavy Alloy weights are typically machined to precise tolerances and are provided with a protective coating to the customer specification.

Tungsten 8-Gram Tip Weight

Significantly heavier than lead, the tungsten 8-Gram Tip Weights pack a mighty weight into a compact footprint. These color-coded weights enable instant visual identification of tip weight size for convenience, and the resilient composition allows the weights to flex for ease of installation while still delivering long, reliable, rattle-free performance.

Tungsten Barrel Shape

The barrel forms the main part of a dart. When we are speaking of "buying a (new) dart" we mean getting a new dart barrel. Nowadays barrels are available in almost every possible shape, with a wide selection of knurl or rings on the surface for a comfortable and safe grip.

The main tungsten dart Barrels' Shapes are:
- cylinder
- ton
- torpedo
The selection to the left shows tungsten dart barrels with 2 threads (soft tip), to the right are fixed-tip steel tungsten dart barrels.

It's not possible to say which one is the "right" one. Based on a very theoretical reasoning the long cylindrical tungsten dart barrels could be the best of them because it is the slimmest and allows the tightest grouping. Good for 140s and 180s. But this reasoning doesn't help you when you are not able to handle such a barrel. Selecting the right shape is a matter of personal preference. Choose what feels comfortable for you. This is much more important than an abstract or "academic" reasoning about theoretical advantages or disadvantages of some shapes.

Tungsten dart barrel weight

Tungsten dart barrel weight is a never ending story. A lot of people want to know which weight they should throw, which weight is the most common one, what's the average weight and so on. There is no right answer to these questions. For the "average weight" question there probably is an answer, but it doesn't make much sense.

An example of two world champions:

Dennis Priestley throws 14 gram darts.
Raymond van Barneveld throws 26 gram darts.

If you ask the average question now the answer will be 20 grams, but does this make sense when the weights vary that much?

For a beginner steel dart player I recommend a tungsten dart barrel weight between 22 and 25 grams, which is slightly on the heavy side. The reason is that you need to develop a basic throwing skill in order to reach a certain initial level of play with darts on the heavy side. You would probably reach such a level a bit faster with lighter darts, but lighter darts don't force you to develop a somehow decent technique which will make later improvement a lot harder. Heavier darts also forgive slight technical inconsistencies (in other words: errors) better than lighter darts -- I like to tell heavier darts more "good-natured" because of this. The lighter the dart the more sensible it reacts to what you are doing -- slight intentional adjustments as well as slight technical errors or deficits.

Once you have got some darting experience and a decent technique you may find the heavier dart not that convincing any longer because of its good-natured behavior. If you then think you could use a dart that reacts more sensible you should consider going lighter.

Soft tip players won't have that much of a choice for their dart weight. The limit set by the machine operators and leagues usually is below 20 grams. If you are a beginner in soft tip the only advice I can give you concerning the weight of your darts is start at the maximum allowed weight.

Tungsten darts barrel materia

Today's standard material is Nickel-Tungsten. Tungsten is a very dense material, so tungsten darts are with considerable weight can be made quite slim. The invention of tungsten dart barrels had a big impact on the sport. With the new dart barrels, it is possible to achieve much better grouping than before, and the averages in pro games have improved dramatically. It is not an overstatement when this development is referred to as "the tungsten revolution".

Before the tungsten revolution, dart barrels were mainly made of brass. Brass dart barrels are still used by some players because they are much cheaper than tungsten. But brass dart barrels are ancient technology now, so I can't recommend them.

Because of technical difficulties with manufacturing 100% tungsten darts are not available. All "tungsten" darts you can buy are in fact made of tungsten alloys, with Nickel-Tungsten being the most common one. When you buy a dart the amount of tungsten in the alloy is given by a percentage number. So a common "80% Tungsten" dart has 80 percent tungsten and 20 percent Nickel, Copper and/or Ferro. Tungsten darts are available from 80% to over 90%. The more tungsten the slimmer - and the more expensive - the tungsten darts are. If the high-percentage tungsten darts are worth the higher price is an open question. Personally I think that 80% tungsten dart barrels are good enough for almost everyone.

Remember: the only benefit from a high tungsten share is that the dart barrels can be made slimmer than a dart with the same weight and a lower tungsten share. In no way do higher tungsten percentages indicate some sort of overall better quality or better machining.

Tungsten darts

Tungsten is an extremely dense metal, considerably more so than brass or nickel; this increased density allows more weight in a smaller (thinner) barrel, making close grouping easier while maintaining the weight and minimising bounce-outs. These high-density tungsten darts resist wear far better than brass or nickel. Tungsten darts are recommended for all darts players who have played competitively at some point and are the darts used by all professionals because having all of the darts mass concentrated into such a small, thin area vastly enhances the control of the dart. When buying tungsten darts, it is important to pay attention to the percentage of tungsten in the dart barrels because it is central to the quality of the dart; in general the higher the percentage the better, and more expensive, the dart.

Tungsten Alloy is an Excellent Material for Use in Crankshaft Balancing
