Types of Tungsten Alloy Swaging Rod Surface Finish

Types of Tungsten Alloy Swaging Rod Surface Finish Picture

There are various tungsten alloy swaging rod surface finish.
First of all, it is swaged finish and cleaned finish. Swaged finish has a gray, matte finish with some minor surface irregularities due to oxidation during processing. Cleaned finish has a chemically cleaned surface.
What is more, it is the centerless ground finish. A centerless ground finish ensures uniformity of size to close tolerances. Centerless ground finish rod is supplied with a bright, polished surface. A ground-etched finish is also available on special request.
In addition, it is the machined finish . Machined finish is a bright surface typical of machined parts. Special surface roughness requirements must be specified.

Tolerance Details:

1、Clean-up Tolerance & Straightness

Finish Clean-up Tolerance(inches) Straightness
Swaged or cleaned 0.075 Maximum of 0.015 per foot of length

Clean-up tolerance means the amount of material that must be removed from the tungsten alloy swaging rod's diameter to have a totally uniform surface.

2、Diameter Tolerance

Diameter Range(inches) Swaged & Cleaned Finish Centerless Ground Finish Machined Finish
0.625 to 0.749 + 0.008 + 0.003
0.750 to 0.999 + 0.010 + 0.005
1.000 to 1.749 + 0.015 + 0.008 + 0.005
1.750 to 2.000 + 0.030 + 0.010 + 0.005

3、Length Tolerance

Diameter(inches) Minimum Length(Feet) Maximum Length (Feet) Length Tolerance (inches)
0.625 to 0.749 + 0.008 + 0.003
0.750 to 0.999 + 0.010 + 0.005
1.000 to 1.749 + 0.015 + 0.008 + 0.005
1.750 to 2.000 + 0.030 + 0.010 + 0.005

The two criteria for the tungsten alloy swaging rod are that the length cannot be longer than 8 feet and the weight cannot more than 50kg.
