The
dense and mechanically stable solution
Wolfmet is the prime choice for adding balance or vibration
damping mass where space is at a premium and mechanical
strength is required. The high density of tungsten alloy
also provides one of the most effective gamma and x-ray
radiation shields available.
The environmentally
friendly answer
Wolfmet is the inert alternative to materials such as
lead and depleted uranium, making it safe for use even
in the most environmentally sensitive areas.
