Tungsten Alloy Counterweight Rod

1. What's Tungsten Alloy Counterweight Rod?
Tungsten alloy counterweight rod is high density tungsten alloy rod consisting mainly of tungsten (W) phase with nickel (Ni)-iron (Fe), nickel (Ni)-copper (Cu), or nickel (Ni)-iron (Fe)-molybdenum (Mo) binder systems. CTIA’s tungsten alloy counterweight rod typically has a density of 17.0–18.8 g/cm³, approaching the density of pure tungsten, and features compact size, high mass concentration capability, dimensional stability, and good machinability. Tungsten alloy rod enables weight adjustment, center-of-gravity control, and dynamic balancing within limited space.

2. Characteristics of CTIA’s Tungsten Alloy Counterweight Rod
(1) High Specific Gravity and Compact Counterweight
Density of 17.0–18.8 g/cm³ enables high mass concentration within limited space, meeting compact counterweight design requirements.
(2) Dimensional Stability and High Balancing Accuracy
Uniform microstructure and coefficient of thermal expansion of approximately 5.0–6.5 × 10⁻⁶/K provide stable dimensions for rotating components and precision equipment.
(3) Good Strength and Wear Resistance
Tensile strength of 700–1000 MPa provides good load-bearing capability and vibration resistance for long-term operating conditions.
(4) Excellent Machinability
Higher machinability than pure tungsten materials enables precision processes such as turning, grinding, and drilling for complex counterweight components.
