Boron Carbide Nozzle
Engineered ceramic nozzle (B4C) ranking second only to diamond in hardness.
The hardness of boron carbide is only secondary to diamond and CBN. The density of the boron carbide products produced by us is close to its academic density 2.52g/cm3. Its advantages are: High hardness, high wear-resistance ability, anticorrosion, lower cost per use, reducing down time.
