Tungsten carbide ball is extremely hard. The manufacturing technique makes tungsten carbide ball substantially more expensive than other materials, but practically inert. Their relative inertness makes them extremely resistant to interaction with various liquids and alloys. Tungsten carbide balls can be found in heavy machinery applications, since they are much stronger than stainless steel or chrome. Particularly, tungsten carbide ball has been used in industrial sprayers to regulate the flow of fertilizers or pesticides to crops.
Due to the strength of tungsten carbide, the balls are frequently used in the downhole tool industry for hardbanding. These are critical applications for the petroleum drilling industry.
In general chemical contact environments, tungsten carbide balls have stable chemical properties. In addition to being able to withstand common acid and alkali corrosion, they are not prone to chemical reactions when mixed or in contact with many other chemical substances, avoiding the adverse effects of chemical reactions on their own performance and the process flow in which they are located, thus ensuring the safety and reliability of applications.
