Tungsten Carbide Cobalt Binder Mixture from China
A nonagglomerated powder blend of tungsten carbide particles mixed with cobalt metallic binder, used primarily in manufacturing cutting tools and wear-resistant parts. This falls under HTS 3824.30.00.00 as it consists of metal carbides combined with metallic binders without agglomeration into shaped forms. The mixture enables sintering into high-hardness components for industrial applications.

Import Tips
• Verify metal carbide content and binder ratio via lab analysis for accurate classification; ensure SDS includes composition details for customs; avoid misclassification as finished tools which fall under Chapter 82
