    Tungsten Carbide Grit — Portugal

    Portuguese granite quarrying companies and hard-facing fabricators — serving Alentejo and Trás-os-Montes granite and marble extraction operations and Portugal's active construction sector — use hard-facing tungsten carbide grit (apparent density 5.5–6.0 g/cc, Vickers hardness ~3,000 HV, mesh 30/40 to 100/120) in OAW overlay electrodes for wear protection on quarry drill bit crowns, stone splitting wedges, crusher jaw plates, and quarry loader bucket teeth operating in Portugal's extremely hard granite, quartzite, and schist rock formations. Portugal's natural stone sector — one of Europe's largest exporters of granite and marble — depends on hard-facing consumables to extend the service life of drilling and processing equipment in some of Europe's most abrasive stone quarrying conditions. Jayanth Tungsten supplies fused W₂C grit via Sines or Lisbon with consistent mesh sizing and CoA documented per lot.

    Export questions

    What hardness can I expect from this grit?

    Hard-facing tungsten carbide grit has an approximate Vickers hardness of 3,000 HV, with apparent density 5.5–6.0 g/cc and total carbon 3.5–4.1%. Mesh fractions from 30/40 to 100/120 are available — confirm your application (overlay, cladding, drill cone) for a mesh recommendation.

    Does Portugal have its own tungsten production, and why would Portuguese buyers source from India?

    Portugal does produce tungsten ore (Panasqueira is one of the world's largest tungsten mines), but finished W metal powder and WC powder for industrial use is still sourced internationally. Portuguese buyers source from Jayanth Tungsten for specific W powder grades (F.S.S.S., chemistry) not available locally, or to diversify supply alongside European processors.
