A tungsten cylinder is a solid, cylindrical object made from tungsten, a metal known for its exceptional density, hardness, and resistance to high temperatures. It is commonly used in applications requiring weight balancing, radiation shielding, and durability under extreme heat, such as in aerospace, medical, and industrial fields. Tungsten’s high melting point and corrosion resistance make it ideal for environments that demand robust performance and longevity.

A tungsten cylinder refers to a cylindrical object made of tungsten, a dense, durable, and high-melting-point metal. Tungsten (W) is known for its extraordinary hardness, high density (about 19.25 g/cm³, close to gold and much denser than steel), and resistance to heat and wear. Due to these properties, tungsten cylinders are often used in various industries for purposes like:
| Specification | Value/Range | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Material | Tungsten (W) | Element with atomic number 74 |
| Density | 19.25 g/cm³ | Very high density, almost as dense as gold |
| Melting Point | 3422°C (6192°F) | Highest melting point of any metal |
| Thermal Conductivity | 173 W/m·K | Good thermal conductivity |
| Electrical Resistivity | 5.5 µΩ·cm at 20°C | Moderate electrical resistance |
| Hardness | 7.5 Mohs | High hardness and resistance to scratching |
| Ultimate Tensile Strength | 700–1000 MPa | Excellent tensile strength depending on purity and processing |
| Coefficient of Thermal Expansion | 4.5 × 10⁻⁶ /K | Low thermal expansion compared to most metals |
| Corrosion Resistance | High | Resistant to oxidation at high temperatures |
| Size | Customizable | Cylinders can be made in various lengths and diameters |
| Applications | Weights, Radiation shielding, Heat sinks | Used in industrial, scientific, and aerospace applications |
