High-Performance Tungsten Materials for Demanding Applications
Tungsten is renowned for its outstanding physical and mechanical properties. It has the highest melting point (3422°C) and highest tensile strength among all metals, along with an extremely high density (19.3 g/cm³) and excellent thermal and mechanical stability. These characteristics make tungsten ideal for use in environments that demand extreme heat resistance, shape stability, and mechanical durability.
At GESmaterials, we supply a full range of tungsten products, including pure tungsten metal, tungsten heavy alloys, tungsten copper, tungsten silver, and tungsten carbide.
All products are manufactured with high purity and precision, ensuring consistent quality and reliable performance in every application.
We also offer customized tungsten parts based on your specific requirements—whether it’s special dimensions, complex shapes, or particular alloy compositions. Please contact us at your convenience to discuss your project needs.

Tungsten is a grayish-white, heavy metal known for its exceptional strength, density, and thermal stability. It has the highest melting point (3422°C) and lowest vapor pressure among all metals, making it indispensable in extreme temperature environments. Tungsten also features excellent creep resistance, low thermal expansion, and good electrical and thermal conductivity.
Tungsten is one of the strongest and most heat-resistant metals known. It combines exceptional hardness, high density, and thermal stability, making it a preferred choice for high-temperature and high-stress environments.
Tungsten’s combination of a high melting point, low vapor pressure, and excellent strength makes it indispensable in many high-performance industries. It remains stable and reliable under extreme heat, mechanical stress, and vacuum conditions.
Q: What’s the difference between pure tungsten and tungsten heavy alloy?
A: Pure tungsten is extremely dense and heat-resistant but also quite brittle. Tungsten heavy alloys include nickel, iron, or copper to improve strength, toughness, and machinability.
Q: Is tungsten magnetic?
A: Pure tungsten is not magnetic. However, alloys containing iron or nickel may show slight magnetic properties.
Q: Do you offer custom tungsten parts?
A: Yes. We provide custom machining services for both pure tungsten and tungsten alloys. Just send us your drawings or specifications.
Q: How does tungsten compare to lead for radiation shielding?
A: Tungsten is denser and non-toxic, offering safer and more compact shielding solutions than lead.
