YG6 Tungsten Carbide Mold

What Is YG6 Tungsten Carbide?

YG6 is a fine-grained cemented carbide grade containing approximately 6% cobalt and 90% tungsten carbide. Renyuan Mould manufactures YG6 tungsten carbide molds for applications requiring high hardness and excellent wear resistance.

The low cobalt content gives YG6 superior hardness and wear performance, making it ideal for precision stamping and drawing.

YG6 Properties

YG6 offers hardness around 89 to 91 HRA, excellent wear resistance, and good compressive strength. While less tough than higher-cobalt grades, YG6 maintains sharp cutting edges and polished surfaces for extended periods.

Applications

YG6 carbide molds are used for precision stamping, fine blanking, wire drawing, non-ferrous metal forming, and cutting tools. They are ideal for thin sheet metal, electronic connectors, and precision parts where surface finish matters.

Grade Selection

YG6 is preferred when wear resistance and edge retention are critical. It is not suitable for heavy impact or thick material stamping. For such applications, higher cobalt grades like YG15 or YG20 are recommended.
