Measured Supply Discipline
Property Matrix
Global Tungsten organizes early material conversations around service temperature, density, machinability and documentation so sourcing and engineering teams evaluate the same facts.
| Decision point | Engineering use | Review note |
|---|---|---|
| Density | Shielding, balance weights, compact mass | Confirm alloy family and machining allowance. |
| Heat resistance | Furnace, aerospace, plasma hardware | Match purity and recrystallization exposure. |
| Lot record | Regulated manufacturing | Align MTR, inspection and certificate packet. |
| Decision point | Engineering use | Review note |
|---|---|---|
| Thermal stability | Glass, furnace and vacuum fixtures | Define oxygen exposure and cleaning limits. |
| Workability | Plate, rod and shaped components | Review bend radius and grain direction. |
| Surface condition | Contact and high-temperature assemblies | Specify finish, edge prep and packaging. |
| Decision point | Engineering use | Review note |
|---|---|---|
| Binder system | Wear tooling and impact parts | Balance hardness, toughness and corrosion. |
| Blank geometry | Grinding and finishing yield | Set oversize, flatness and edge condition. |
| Batch control | Repeat production | Track powder lot and sintering consistency. |
