Tungsten is used by the military to produce bullets. Not just any kind of bullets, with tungsten the military is producing armor penetrating bullets and also fragmentation ones that have a devastating effect on the target because in the moment of impact it will shred the target. Tungsten metal is used in a lot of areas from bullets, grenades to even rockets. The combination of tungsten, nickel and iron the tungsten alloy is also used because it has, even more, strength and it is more durable than the pure tungsten. This metal is just perfect for making penetration bullets and shrapnels.
High speed tungsten alloy long rod bullet has a series of excellent properties, such as high strength, high hardness, good ductility, good machining performance, small thermal expansion coefficient, high thermal conductivity, good oxidation and corrosion resistance. It is the main kind of gun and antitank gun, which is widely used in the military field.
In the process of penetration of high speed tungsten alloy long rod bullet, the shape of the bullet has great influence on the penetration depth of the projectile body. The truncated oval-shaped bullet is more favorable for penetrating the target plate. Due to the large impact at the moment of the projectile hitting the target, the damage to the target plate is more serious. In addition, increasing the projectile's length-diameter ratio can also improve the projectile's penetrating ability to target plate.
