FAQ
Can A10W be considered for use in electrical machining?
We believe A10W can be used safely even in electrical machining.
Fine particle grain cemented carbide inhibit crack propagation through mixing coarse-sized grain, and the heat affected layer's thickness is reduced through lowering the amount of Co. This is why we recommend A10W for wire EDM.

What grades do you recommend for punches, dies, and strippers?
It depends on the conditions, so it's hard to say. It also depends on the user.
EF10 for punches and KD20 for dies are used relatively often.
There are cases where ultrafine alloys are not suitable for wire processing such as die-cut blades and strippers (e.g., electrolytic corrosion), so please consult with us first. -
What carbides have excellent chipping and abrasions resistance for cutting and bending materials of C5191, C5210 (phosphor bronze), and C1020 (pure copper)?
Results 1: C5191, C5210 (phosphor bronze): KD20
Results 2: C5210 stamping connector, die: KD40 punch:KD20 stripper:G4
Results 3: C5210 stamping/bending connector EF01
Results 4: C1020 (pure copper) MC20 -
What about working with pure iron, pure copper, and nickel?
The reason for a shorter lifespan is due to their affinity with cobalt contained in carbide.
We have received great praise for our MC20 that controls this adhesion with lowered affinity to these materials.
