Tungsten is one of the most useful resources in the world! Why wouldn’t you buy some? You can use tungsten for many important everyday things. Did you know that tungsten is the only element that is able to be used for light bulb filaments? It has literally been lighting up the world for the entire 20th century. House lamps, floodlights, cameras, projectors, airport runway markers, medical equipment and fiber-optic systems are all possible thanks to Tungsten and now I’m making you an offer for some that you can't refuse. Today, you can look through our vast selection of tungsten rings ranging from 6 to 8mm in diameter, with prices ranging from 150 to only 200 dollars. You can also order many other tungsten appliances specially manufactured at our warehouse.

History of Tungsten:

Tungsten dates back all the way to the Middle Ages starting with German and Swedish smelters. The name tungsten is derived from the Swedish words "tungsten," meaning "heavy stone." Its chemical symbol, W, is derived from the German wolfram, the old name of the tungsten mineral Wolframite. In 1781, a self-made chemist and scientist, Carl Wilhelm Scheele, and Torbern Bergman, a Swedish chemist and mineralogist, suggested it might be possible to obtain a new metal buy reducing tungstic acid. Two years later, in 1783, Jose and Fausto Elhuyar were the first to isolate tungsten through the reduction of this acid with charcoal. For this reason, they are credited with the discovery of this element.

The Chemical and Physical Properties of Tungsten: Tungsten is a transition metal which means it is part of the group in the middle of the periodic table. Something interesting about these metals is that they are all very similar in their chemical properties, but what makes Tungsten so interesting is its very high melting point. All in all Tungsten is a fairly inactive metal, because it doesn't combine with oxygen at room temperature and will only rust at temperatures above 400 degrees celcius. As for Tungsten's physical properties it is a hard brittle solid with colors that range from steel-gray to a creamy color. With a melting point the highest of any metal, at 3,410 degrees celcius, and a boiling point at 5,900 degrees celcius, it is truly a special element. It weighs about 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter and it conducts metal very well the reason why it is used in lightbulb filaments.

The Many Uses of Tungsten:


 * Tungsten is used in many different appliances around the world. The biggest industrial use of tungsten is in light bulb filaments.The part of the light bulb known as the filament is a thin wire inside the light bulb that emits light when heated to incandescence by an electric current, arguably the most important part. This is because of Tungsten's unique boiling/melting points which are the highest of any known metal. Also tungsten can be made into many different shapes and is very unreactive making it perfect to use in sealed vacuums.

 * Another huge commercial use for tungsten is in Tungsten Carbides. Tungsten carbide is an extremely hard, fine gray powder whose composition is WC, it can be compressed and formed into different shapes used in tools, dies, wear-resistant machine parts, and abrasives. The tungsten carbide made by combining tungsten and carbon. As an inorganic compound, it is extremely dense ,comparable to sapphire in hardness. It is also 3 times stiffer than steel.


 * A large market for Tungsten carbides in the ring and wedding band industry. Tungsten model rings are the hardest types of rings avaliable on the planet. And are referred to as permanetly polished. These rings will never bend or lose there shape, shining much longer than any other type of ring.

Interesting Facts About Tungsten:
 * Tungsten Carbides are also used in making many different tools used in high heat situations such as parts of machinery. This makes Tungsten a vital part of many different industries in multiple fields such as: aerospace, medical, oil and gas, resistance wielding, and different types of electrical contacts.
 * Tungsten is too hard to melt so it is usually formed into a powder and the compressed into different shapes.
 * Tungsten has the lowest vapor pressure of any metal
 * Western Europe controls over 30% of the worlds Tungsten
 * One theory behind the name wolfram was that it was named from wolf rahm (wolf froth or cream), a reference to the large amount of tin that was devoured when the tungsten was smelted.

Why Tungsten?:

So now that you have seen what Tungsten is and what it can do your are probably wondering "Whats the catch? Tungsten can't be this special; there's got to be other metals that can fill its role." The answer to this is "THEREIS NO CATCH!" Tungsten is the best at what it does forming some of the hardest and most heat resistant materials and products on the planet. There is no other choice for the world to make, Tungsten is and will be the future.
