High purity tungsten rods are mainly used in the manufacture of high temperature parts, such as electrodes, vacuum furnace tubes, EDM and gas discharge tubes in high pressure atmospheres. Due to its high melting point and corrosion resistance, high purity tungsten rods are also used in glass smelting, refractory ceramics and fused metals industries. In addition, high purity tungsten rods are also used to manufacture high-end military equipment and aerospace components.
