Carbide Tools

Carbide offers significantly enhanced hardness and heat resistance compared to steel. While a tool featuring **tungsten carbide** cutting edges typically carries a higher initial cost than its steel counterpart, its superior durability translates to greater long-term cost-effectiveness. For instance, **carbide woodturning tools**, such as those offered by **Greenvill Crafts**, maintain their sharpness for extended periods, reducing the frequency of replacements and minimizing downtime. The extended lifespan of **tungsten carbide** renders it a more economical choice for demanding applications where tool wear is a significant factor.
