    Fused Tungsten Carbide — Australia

    Australian core drilling equipment manufacturers — serving the Western Australia and Queensland mineral exploration sector, where large drilling contractors operate extensively — specify fused tungsten carbide (W₂C) grit for brazing into core bit crowns used in diamond drilling through hard rock formations. The 30/40 to 60/80 ASTM mesh fractions are most common for crown manufacturing, where apparent density (5.90 g/cc) and very low free carbon (max. 0.003%) support consistent braze quality and bit performance across long exploration drilling programs. Jayanth Tungsten supplies fused W₂C across the full ASTM/BSS −40 to +600 mesh range to order, with chemistry confirmed on the certificate of analysis for Australian core bit manufacturers.

    Export packaging & documentation

    Fused tungsten carbide is supplied as crushed grit in ASTM/BSS mesh fractions (−40 to +600, to order) or as cast rod, packed in moisture-resistant containers. Export classification is under HS heading 8101.99 (other tungsten articles, fused carbide).

    Shipping to Australia

    Shipments to Australia are routed from Nhava Sheva or Chennai to Fremantle, Melbourne, or Brisbane, with sea transit typically 3–4 weeks given the relatively short Indian Ocean crossing. Tungsten powders and compounds are classified under the Australian Harmonized Tariff (aligned with HS heading 8101 for metal/carbide powders or 2841 for tungstates); export documentation is prepared for clearance through Australian Border Force. Pricing is quoted in USD or AUD on request.

    Export questions

    Which mesh sizes are commonly exported?

    30/40, 40/60, 60/80, and 100/120 ASTM mesh are the most common export grades for diamond tool and hard-facing applications, though the full range from −40 to +600 mesh can be supplied to order.

    How long does shipping to Australia take?

    Sea freight from Indian ports (Nhava Sheva/Chennai) to Fremantle, Melbourne, or Brisbane typically takes 3–4 weeks. Given the relatively short Indian Ocean route compared to European or US destinations, Australia is one of our faster export lanes. Export documentation is prepared for Australian Border Force clearance.
