Tungsten Carbide Tools for Mining & Rock Drilling
Mining tools face the harshest combination of impact and abrasion in industry, drilling and cutting hard rock. Sonani Tungsten manufactures tungsten carbide drill buttons for deep-hole and rock drilling, inserts for tunnel-boring machines, roller-bit buttons and carbide tips for excavator bucket teeth, the wear parts that keep drilling and material-handling equipment productive.
Carbide buttons and inserts penetrate faster and last longer than steel, cutting downtime and bit changes in demanding operations. Tough, high-cobalt grades such as SCR08 (mining buttons) and SCR09 (drill-steel inserts) are engineered to absorb impact while resisting abrasion, and every part is produced in-house and exported to mining operations worldwide.
