Welcome to Basic Carbide's Home Page
Basic Carbide specializes in custom-made tungsten carbide preforms in both Cobalt and Nickel grades, including our special cobalt Wire EDM
grade, BC-12C. We can produce a wide range of sizes and shapes of tungsten carbide products to serve the needs of many industries, and we
can manufacture almost any preform to meet your needs. We also have the capability to mechanically press high volume jobs. We can also
produce custom grades, although there will be minimum quantity/volume requirements associated with such an order.
For parts made with our standard grades (see our Grade Chart), we have no minimum quantity requirements, but we do
discount based on quantity - our quantity break ranges are: 2-4, 5-9, 10-24, 25-49, 50-99, 100-199, 200-299, 300-499, 500-999, and 1000+ (at
higher quantities, we will also look into the feasibility of mechanically pressing the job). Although our products are shipped as preforms,
we do offer centerless grinding and limited surface grinding as a service to our customers (upon explicit request only - we subcontract these
services, and do no finish grinding in-house). We invite you to explore this Web site and learn more about our products, services, and capabilities.
