KOREA TUNGSTEN CO.,LTD

Where our materials are used

Fusion reactors, nuclear facilities and medical imaging equipment. Korea Tungsten's parts go into the positions other materials cannot survive.

SUPPLY RECORD

It goes into three places

Three areas in clean energy and medicine that we actually supply.

Fusion

We supply tungsten parts for the International

Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) project. The areas facing the plasma have to withstand thousands of degrees, which is why tungsten — the metal with the highest

melting point — is used.

Nuclear

We supply structural materials used in nuclear power facilities. Tungsten parts with high heat and radiation resistance support stable plant operation.

Medical radiation

We make precision parts for diagnostic and imaging equipment and radiation shielding. Tungsten's

high density blocks radiation effectively even in thin sections.

Why tungsten

Tungsten has the highest melting point of any metal (about 3,400°C)

and a high density. That is why it is used in parts that have to withstand high temperature and

parts that have to block radiation.

A material that lasts extends the replacement interval, and

reduces what gets thrown away by the same measure.
