Tungsten disks are part of our extensive range of disks and targets. With 44 variations available, they provide properties like high density, strength and hardness, while remaining somewhat brittle. Example applications of these disks include being used as high-speed rotating balance weights, kinetic energy penetrators, and X-ray shielding in medical and industrial settings. The range of sizes and thicknesses offered makes Tungsten disks suitable for prototyping, research and small-scale production.
