Fused Tungsten Carbide — United Kingdom
UK manufacturers of diamond core drill crowns and bits — serving the construction, quarrying, and geotechnical drilling sectors — use fused tungsten carbide (W₂C) grit in 30/40 to 60/80 ASTM mesh fractions, brazed around diamond segments to form a wear-resistant matrix. The very high hardness and abrasion resistance of fused W₂C (apparent density 5.90 g/cc, total carbon 3.5–4.1%) make it the standard choice for crown bodies subjected to continuous rock contact. Jayanth Tungsten supplies these mesh fractions from ASTM/BSS −40 to +600 to order, with appearance, apparent density, and carbon content confirmed on the certificate of analysis for UK drill bit manufacturers.

Applications
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 United Kingdom
Shipments to the UK are typically routed via Nhava Sheva (JNPT) or Chennai to Felixstowe or Southampton, with sea transit of 4–5 weeks. Since the UK's exit from the EU, consignments clear UK customs directly under the UK Global Tariff; tungsten powders and compounds generally fall under HS heading 8101 (metal/carbide powders) or 2841 (tungstates), and export documentation is prepared to match UK customs declarations. Pricing is quoted in GBP or USD 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.
Do you ship directly to UK ports?
Yes — consignments are shipped from Indian ports (Nhava Sheva/Chennai) to Felixstowe or Southampton, typically arriving in 4–5 weeks by sea freight. Air freight is available for urgent or small-quantity orders. Export documentation is prepared for UK customs clearance under the relevant HS code for the product ordered.
