Our Product

Dymet Alloys produce a wide range of ISO standard and special Cobalt and Nickel binder tungsten carbide alloy grades including sub-micron grades in-house to meet individual customer specifications and requirements for both cylindrical and flat sintered and finished ground components.

The finished parts are typically used for wear resistant components and specialised tooling. Most of the products we supply are made to bespoke designs, to meet customer’s individual requirements, and start from a customer’s application, drawing or sample component.

Our laboratory is fully equipped for the design and testing of hard metals, which means we can help our customers to develop prototypes and produce tungsten carbide products for the toughest applications in industry.
