Tungsten Needles and Tungsten Rhenium Needles Used in the Construction of Probe Cards 291

Tungsten needle, also named tungsten pin, mainly refer to thin tungsten rod or thin tungsten rod with sharp tip. Their properties are basically the same, but uses are different. Mostly, their diameters are usually below 2mm and lengths range from 15mm to 100mm. For thin tungsten rod, it is mainly used as an electrode for argon arc welding. During welding, an arc will be generated between the tungsten electrode and the workpiece, and under the action of the arc heat,…

What Are Differences of Tungsten Copper Foils, Sheets and Blocks 257

What do you know about tungsten copper foils, strips, sheets, plates, or blocks? What are their differences? Actually, they are the same product with rectangular shape. To distinguish them, people often call them differently. Foils usually mean plates with thickness less than 0.1mm; strips mean thin and narrow plates; sheets mean plates with 0.1-2.0mm thickness; plates mean 2.0-10.0mm thickness and thickness above 10.0mm will be called blocks. Tungsten copper alloy is a refractory metal alloy of tungsten and copper which…
