Tungsten Carbide Ring Removal

[finchi5]

This is tungsen carbide and if you hit it with anything you can shatter them. Even if yuo drop one on a ceramic tiled floor it could smash. I use tungsten carbide end mills for milling and if you drop these they can be damaged very easily.

This stuff is very hard but brittle

[elc0n]

what happens if you hit it with a diamond hammer. Like the once for breaking windows?

The difference in Tungsten rings is how much cobalt is is in it. More cobalt means weaker the ring. High end tungsten rings are cobalt free.

No problem, try it on a finger it breaks so easy. Look at the other videos.

Tungsten carbide is also referred as a "Ceramic material" It is the most brittle metal and is not solid

Are we sure its tungsten carbide or just tungsten? Big difference

[amileya352]

tungsten rings tend to be removed by tools like vice grips.

it is tungsten carbide when the guy hit it with a sledgehammer it was on wood so the wood took most of the impact if he had it on a hard suface it would have shatterd due to the brittle nature of tungsten carbide

[mypodtouch1000]

Not tungsten carbide. a guy got a sledgehammer and hit it hard and it got nailed into the woods below it and when they got it out not one scratch or dent
