Tungsten Alloy is often used in the Oil and Gas industry due to its high strength and reliability. Used in wireline, it is often used as a weighting system to offset the increased pressure beneath the surface of the Earth to assist in drilling for Oil. Because tungsten alloy is higher in density per volume, tungsten alloy is preferred over lead, combine this with the environmentally friendlier properties in tungsten versus lead, and you can see why tungsten alloy is becoming the most widely used metal in the Oil and Gas industry.
The high density of tungsten alloys, which is critical to the radiation shielding, are also extremely beneficial for sinker bar applications. These high density weights or series of weights are attached to the down hole logging tool assemblies in order to add the extra weight to help the tool properly descend through the heavy borehole fluids.
density as 18.5g/cm3 max
hardness as 36 HRC max
high wear-resistance
high impact resistance
excellent durability
tungsten heavy alloy is very suitable material for down-hole logging of underground water, oil and gas, etc. Special mechanical property is overweight large component in this case.
Price of tungsten alloy weight for oil logging rig will be offered based on size, density, quantity, hardness, and any other specific requirements.
