Hard materials for wear parts 

Hard materials in general and hard metals in particular offer a series of interesting properties for all 

applications where maximum wear resistance is required. In practical applications, wear parts are 

usually influenced by various interdependent factors: high pressure, high temperature, use of abrasive 

or aggressive media, machining of hard materials. These are only some examples of criteria causing 

wear, which hard materials or hard metals have to be resistant to. The powder-metallurgical production 

of CERATIZIT wear parts enables tailor-made wear resistance of the material. 

This is what makes CERATIZIT hard materials and hard metals indispensable when it comes to 

decisively increasing the service life of highly stressed components. Ever more powerful machines, 

facilities and machining methods create daily new challenges for the CERATIZIT development 

engineers. Our development projects are characterised by close cooperation with customers as well as 

a joint search for solutions to application problems.

Carbide production / blanks 

Carbide is a composite material consisting of particles mainly with tungsten carbide as hard material 

and a metallic binder. For this reason, with carbide it is possible to achieve hardness and toughness 

combinations which cannot be obtained with other materials. The graphic illustration below shows the 

basic steps for producing carbide blanks in the metal forming sector. 

Powder preparation 

Due to its high melting point tungsten carbide (WC) can only be produced through sintering when needed 

for technically sophisticated applications. For this purpose, the powder consisting of the tungsten carbide, 

the cobalt binder (Co) and sometimes additional alloys, is mixed, milled and spray-dried. 

This process results in a spray-dried granulate which can easily be used for production, since its chemical 

and physical properties have already been adapted to the final carbide specification (e.g. WC grain 

size).

Manufacture and machining of blanks 

Carbide production 

By applying pressure the carbide powder is converted into a blank. The material will receive its near net 

shape through the application of traditional machining methods (sawing, drilling, milling, turning), so that 

extended machining of the sintered carbide blank is no longer necessary. The density of the blank is 

approx. 50% of the sintered carbide‘s density which leads to an approx. 20% shrinkage in length.

Optional: 

machining of blanks 

The sintering process converts the blank into a homogeneous piece of carbide with a high degree of 

hardness. When sintering hard metal (usually at a temperature of approx. 1400°C), this process is called 

liquid phase sintering. In this case, the binder (e.g. cobalt) melts and wets the WC hard material particles. 

After sintering, the density of the carbide is almost, or even precisely, the same as the theoretical density. 

Any residual porosity which occurs after the sintering procedure may be removed through an ensuing 

HIP process.

Our coating competence covers classic hard material coatings and functional tailor-made coatings 

for specific customer applications. For the production of coatings we apply CVD, PVD and galvanic 

processes. Special surface treatments are mainly applied to improve brazing properties. 

Parts with cobalt coating

Composite parts 

For several applications it does not make sense to manufacture the entire component in hard metal. 

The use of hard metal is limited to the area in which wear occurs. Materials with suitable wearresistance 

are used for the carrier tool; they are easier to machine than carbide. For the combination of 

carbide with other materials, numerous tried and tested technologies are applied. 

Examples: brazing, gluing, clamping, connections with screws and shrinking.

Carbide treatment by means of spark erosion meets the highest technological standards. Wire erosion 

and cavity sinking by EDM additionally guarantee high precision. Long-standing experience combined 

with carbide grades that are specially adapted for erosion guarantee optimum machining results.

Toughness 

Carbide is a brittle, hard material 

with mechanical properties that 

can be adjusted within a very wide 

range, given its composition and 

microstructure. The hardness and 

toughness range of the CERATIZIT 

grades includes everything from 

wear resistant tool steel to super-hard 

ceramic materials. 

Carbide is a powder metallurgically produced composite material consisting of a hard material 

(e.g. tungsten carbide, WC) and a metallic binder (e.g. cobalt, Co) 

The hard material provides the necessary 

→ hardness 

→ wear resistance 

The metallic binder provides 

→ toughness

The basis for optimum quality 

The graphic illustrations below show that the mechanical properties of the carbide mainly depend on the binder 

content (Co) and the TC grain size. Hardness, i.e. wear resistance, increases inversely/reciprocally proportional 

to the fracture toughness. This means that the harder the material the more it reacts to notch tensions and impact 

stress (the ‘impact resistance’ parameter, which cannot be precisely defined, correlates to a high degree with the 

fracture toughness of the material). 

On the other hand, the transverse rupture strength does not directly depend on the hardness but rather on the TC 

grain size and the cobalt content. The adhesive wear (tendency to stick), however, decreases with the grain size and 

the cobalt content of the carbide used. The list of the mentioned interdependencies, which could be extended at will 

for other wear and failure mechanisms, show that it is only possible to choose the correct carbide grade following a 

systematic procedure and/or based on experience with similar forming processes.

When referring to carbide, ‘corrosion’ means the detachment of the binder caused by corrosive 

materials. This can cause early breakage (notching!) or notably increased wear. In this context 

carbides containing Co/Ni or Ni or a chromium-doped binder represent an advantage. 

The ferromagnetic properties of cobalt and nickel make it possible to magnetise carbides which have 

a suitable binder. Upon request some of the nickel-bound carbide grades can also be delivered as non 

magnetic grades.

Silicon nitride 

Ceramic hard materials and particularly silicon nitride have several characteristics which compared to 

metallic hard materials are advantageous for numerous applications. This is not only true for cutting 

tool applications but also for certain fields in wear protection. Silicon nitride is mainly used where the 

following properties are required: 

● Low weight 

● Good mechanical properties up to 1200°C 

● Good reliability 

● High resistance to thermal shock 

● Good corrosion resistance 

● High wear resistance 

● Low thermal expansion 

● Low conductivity 

● Good anti-friction properties

Tolerance table 

Blank tolerances 

Compact formed parts are manufactured through pressing and subsequent sintering which implies a 

volume shrinkage of around 20%. It is therefore a special challenge for the production specialists to 

obtain tight blank tolerances. 

Apart from the composition and the geometrical shape the type of machining operation is mainly decisive 

for the result achieved. 

For standard parts, tolerances are also specified in the ISO standards (e.g.: ISO 2768).

The views and focus of our 

business partners matters

Innovative and flexible 

thinking matters 

CERATIZIT consulting 

Our external service staff elaborate 

individual carbide solutions on site. In this 

manner you will benefit from our longstanding 

and worldwide know-how already 

in the product development phase. You 

will be continuously informed on new 

tendencies in the carbide sector, new 

grades or standard products from our 

CERATIZIT plants throughout the world. 

CERATIZIT 

Carbide injection moulding 

technology 

Carbide parts with a complex geometry 

can virtually be injection moulded at will, 

just like plastic parts. This creates new 

possibilities for: 

• filigree constructions 

• thin walls 

• undercuts, transverse holes, etc. 

Injection moulding of carbide is 

particularly suitable for large volume 

production. 

Communication matters

Our environment 

matters 

Every request is discussed by our 

specialist teams: carbide grades are 

defined, mass, tolerances, forming 

and surface quality are controlled, the 

production process is optimised for the 

respective batch size and manufacturing 

costs are analysed. 

CERATIZIT 

alternative solutions 

Our team elaborates optimised 

alternative solutions for you in order 

to ensure low-cost manufacturing. 

In this way solutions, tailor-made to 

your needs, are created. 

The views and focus 

of our business partners 

matters 

– Instead of talking product with 

customers, we work on real solutions 

for business partners.

CERATIZIT preparation of work 

Precise manufacturing dimensions and 

optimal operation plans are our strength. 

This requires drawings of blanks and 

finished parts where the shrinkage 

(around 20%) is taken into account. Also 

pressing tools, devices for working blanks 

and diamond grinding disks for finishing 

operations have to be included in the 

planning. Programs have to be written for 

CNC machining of blanks and finished 

parts. 

CERATIZIT construction of 

tools and fixtures 

Our in-house tool and fixture department 

allows us to quickly respond to your 

requirements as well as to maintain tools 

and repair them if necessary. 

CERATIZIT prototype parts 

Prototype parts make quick 

implementation of your product 

ideas possible. In this context you 

will continuously be advised by our 

specialists. In this way volume batches 

suitable for the market are manufactured: 

both material and geometry are optimised 

and can be manufactured economically. 

CERATIZIT SAP network 

All processes, from order acceptance 

via production and quality control, stock 

management, dispatch and invoicing of 

the products are memorised in the SAP. 

The manufacturing state of the orders is 

continuously monitored so that delivery 

deadlines can be met. 

For contract orders the SAP system 

automatically checks the minimum 

quantities and production is planned 

dynamically 

All CERATIZIT production sites are 

connected online via the SAP.
