Sandblasting Boron Carbide B4C Nozzle with Excellent Wear-Resistance and Longer Service Life, More Specifications Customizable!
Material: Boron Carbide (B4C).
Jacket: Steel / Aluminum / Polyurethane Protector.
The hardness of boron carbide is only secondary to diamond and CBN. The density of the boron carbide products produced by us is close to its academic density 2.52g/cm3. Its advantages are :High hardness, high wear-resistance ability, anti-corrosion, lower cost per use, reducing down time. It's the ideal material for sandblasting nozzle and mechanical seal.Boron carbide can be used to manufacture gun nozzles in the arms industry, which is extremely hard and wear-resistant, no reaction with acid-base, high/low temperature resistance, high pressure resistance, crystal system: hexagonal, density: 2.52g/cm3, Mohs hardness: 9.36, microhardness 5400-6300kg/mm2, bending strength ≥400Mpa, melting point: 2450ºC. Because it has the characteristics of wear resistance and high hardness, Boron Carbide Sandblasting Nozzle will gradually replace the known carbide/tungsten steel and silicon carbide, silicon nitride, alumina, zirconia and other materials sandblasting nozzle in the future.
