Abstract

Market Overview:

The global tungsten carbide market size reached US$ 19.4 Billion in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 27.5 Billion by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.9% during 2023-2028.

Tungsten carbide (WC) is a dense, light gray, and metal-like inorganic chemical compound synthesized by heating tungsten with carbon black in the presence of hydrogen. It can be pressed and shaped into various geometries through the process of sintering. Tungsten carbide is widely used in industrial equipment, cutting tools, jewelry, abrasives, armor-piercing shells, alloys, coatings, and mill products. It is a highly durable material that offers increased strength, low electrical resistivity, high melting and boiling temperature, improved hardness, and resistance to abrasion, heat, scratch, and rust. As a result, tungsten carbide finds extensive applications across the aerospace and defense, automotive, mining and construction, electronics, sports, and medical industries.

Tungsten Carbide Market Trends:

The significant growth in the automotive industry is creating a positive outlook for the market. Tungsten carbide is widely used to produce high-performance auto parts that can withstand high stress and heat, such as ball joints, brakes, crankshafts, and studs for tires. In addition, the widespread product utilization to make cutting tools that are used to manufacture automotive engines, transmissions, axels, and steering assemblies is acting as another growth-inducing factor. Furthermore, increasing demand for tungsten carbide in the drilling and mining industry for producing drill bits, roller cutters, downhole hammers, and tunnel boring machines is providing a considerable boost to the market growth. Additionally, the rising product adoption in three-dimensional (3D) printing for creating efficient and cost-effective high-performance parts is facilitating the market growth. Moreover, widespread product utilization in the medical sector to produce surgical instruments, such as scissors, forceps, blade handles, hemostats, graspers, needle holders, and cautery, is providing an impetus to the market growth. Other factors, including increasing recycling of product scarp, rising incorporation of the compound in sports gear, and significant growth in the construction industry, are anticipated to drive the market growth.
