The 3.0mm diameter tungsten needle features a precisely sharpened tip on one end and a flat end on the other, offering both durability and functional flexibility. It is ideal for applications such as EDM (electrical discharge machining), spark erosion, high-voltage electrodes, and scientific probes. 

With an ultra-fine diameter and extended length, the φ0.2×300mm fine tungsten rod excels in microfabrication and advanced scientific research. 

Tungsten rod is a high-purity, high-density tungsten product featuring excellent high-temperature resistance and mechanical strength.

Tungsten flux needs to be packaged in moisture-proof and sealed packaging. The supply and demand parties shall negotiate and decide whether to package in bags, bottles, cans or barrels, etc. The packaging label name and specifications and other information. During storage and transportation, high temperature, fire source and strong oxidants should be avoided, and ventilation and dryness should be maintained. Handle with care to prevent leakage.

Tungsten flux, also known as tungsten particles, is a granular substance made of high-purity tungsten metal (usually purity ≥99.95%). It has a silver-gray or light-gray polyhedral structure and has the characteristics of high density, high melting point, high hardness, corrosion resistance, strong conductivity and small thermal expansion coefficient. It is generally used as a flux in carbon-sulfur analyzers to analyze the carbon and sulfur content in steel, alloys, ceramics, minerals and other inorganic substances. Tungsten flux can promote the melting of the test sample through oxidation combustion and heat release, and it is not easy to splash, which is conducive to stabilizing the carbon-sulfur analysis results.
