  • As a hard material, the carbide roller ring is composed of a hard phase (tungsten carbide).
  • In combination with metals (usually cobalt, nickel) and trace rare metal elements.
  • Its performance depends on the content of the binding metal and the size of the tungsten carbide particles.
  • The carbide ring has good turning performance; without the need for a special lathe, the existing lathe can roll the ring.
  • When turning, the tool head can be made of high-hardness carbide tool material.

Product Introduction of Tungsten Carbide Rolls:

Compared with steel rolls, cemented carbide roll rings exhibit longer service life, higher cost effectiveness, higher dimensional precision, and better surface finish, owing to their high hardness,good wear resistance, and high modulus of elasticity. This significantly reduces labor intensity and improves productivity.

Product Advantages of  Tungsten Carbide Rolls:

Carbide roller rings have excellent material combinations and reasonable production processes, and have excellent thermal fatigue resistance and corrosion resistance; they have high strength, high toughness, high thermal conductivity, high bending strength, low wear, and good thermal hardness. The service life is much longer than that of ordinary roller rings.

Applications of  Tungsten Carbide Rolls:

Driven by the demands of high-speed wire rod mills, our tungsten carbide rolls are now the industry standard for precision and durability. We provide tailored solutions for:

Wire Rod Mills: Intermediate and finishing stands for high-speed rolling.

Bar & Rebar Mills: Ensuring precise dimensional tolerance and surface quality.

Seamless Tube Mills: Sizing and finishing stands for accurate wall thickness.

Section & Structural Mills: Maintaining groove shape and extending roll life.

Cold & Hot Strip Mills: Work rolls for superior surface finish, flatness, and extended rolling campaigns.

Grade And Properites   

The following are the typical performance parameters of the CYKC GROUP YGR series carbide roller rings. By adjusting the cobalt (Co) content and the grain size of tungsten carbide (WC), we can provide the optimal balance between wear resistance and toughness for different rolling conditions.

Co-Ni-Cr is used as the bonding phase, with high wear resistance, corrosion resistance and versatility.

Grade Applications
YGR20 High wear resistance and corrosion resistance, used in the last 1-2 stands of finishing mills.
YGR25 High wear resistance and corrosion resistance, used in the last 1-3 stands of finishing mills.
YGR30 Good toughness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and hot cracking resistance, used in the intermediate stands of finishing mills.
YGR40 Good toughness and hot cracking resistance, high versatility, used in most stands of the finishing mills and in the rear stands of common mills.
YGR45 Good toughness and hot cracking resistance, used in the front stands of finishing mills.
YGR50 Good toughness and hot cracking resistance, used in the front stands of finishing mills.
YGR55 Good impact resistance, used in the stands of pre-finishing rolling mills for hot rolling rebars and they can be machined by turning and milling.
YGR60 Good impact resistance, used for hot rolling rebars and in the first and second stands of Pre-finishing rolling mills

How to Choose the Right Grade?

Our YGR series uses Co-Ni-Cr as the binder phase, which provides excellent corrosion resistance and thermal fatigue resistance. The key trade-off is:

  • Lower Co content (YGR20–YGR30) → Higher hardness, better wear resistance → Best for last finishing stands where load is low and surface quality is critical.
  • Higher Co content (YGR45–YGR60) → Higher toughness, better impact resistance → Best for front and pre-finishing stands where heavy load and thermal cycling dominate.

If you are unsure which grade fits your mill, send us your stand configuration and rolling parameters — our engineers will recommend the optimal grade.

FAQ:

What are the applications for tungsten carbide rolls?
Tungsten carbide rolls are widely used in the intermediate finishing and finishing sections of wire rod, bar and rebar, seamless tube, section and structural, cold rolling and hot strip mills, because they offer much longer roll life, better dimensional control and superior surface quality compared with conventional cast iron or forged steel rolls.
What is the typical lead time?
30 days for standard grades; custom designs may require additional time based on quantity.
What technical support do you provide?
We can customize and recommend the most suitable roller according to your machine.
What are the commonly used brands of tungsten carbide rollers?
There are different brands according to different materials and processing temperatures.Design and development of YGA, YGR, PA, YGH, PC and so on.
