Boron carbide vs. Tungsten carbide.

[janeriksen]

will Boron carbide be more wear resistant in contact with species of rocks than Tungsten Carbide? And does it bond better to polyurethane plastics and rubber?

Wrong forum- you want tribology engineering forum also the welding, bonding and fastening forum.

cloa,

Just curious, where is the tribology forum?

Q2: Now that you have informed the op that this is the wrong forum, how does he go to a better forum without breaking the double posting rule?

The OP needs to RF his post in this forum and post it in Tribology Engineering forum. By doing this,he will not be cross posting. Hope it helps.

I have worked with WC inserts in cast metal matrix and currently I am working on ceramic inserts for mining applications.
