Alloys always show improvements over the main metal in one or more of their important physical properties (things like strength, durability, ability to conduct electricity, ability to withstand heat, and so on). Generally, alloys are stronger and harder than their main metals, less malleable (...
The black ring has a glossy tungsten PVD coating, making it more durable. The Brushed Silver ring was created using a technique called vertical brushing that allows it to reflect light at every angle and accentuate the properties of titanium. Thanks to its matte black finish, the Stealth ring ...
Generally, a bush hammer tool designed for manual use will feature a heavy, two-sided metal hammer head with a hole in its center that seats it on a long, relatively thin wooden handle for gripping. Metal used for the heads of bush hammers is often tungsten carbide or steel. The hand-p...
Definitely not the best choice: in a one layer tent all things are wet after the night. Reply CAAD8 Tourer April 23, 2015 I travel with success with Topeak BikCamper, 3 seasons only I would say not really suitable for winter. http://www.topeak.com/products/bike-tent/bikamper Reply...
They use Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to monitor the condition of perishables in transit, ensuring they don’t spoil and thus cutting down on waste. 8. Educate consumers Most consumers know the importance of environmental sustainability, but many are still confused about what and how ...
Tantalum carbide is a kind of transition metal carbide with a black or dark brown color, which belongs to the cubic crystal system. Being important cermet materials, tantalum carbides are commercially used in tool bits for cutting applications and are sometimes added to tungsten carbide alloys....
Masonry bits are carbide tipped to give them extra cutting power. The carbide used on masonry bits is an abrasive compound ofcarbonandtungsten. Masonry bits come in different shapes and sizes, depending on what type of material is to be drilled. For example, deep fluted bits are designed for...
With so many types of bulbs out there, it helps to learn which are more energy efficient. Identifying the different types of energy-saving light bulbs can be challenging, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the technology. However, there are a few things you can look for to help you dete...
And with great challenges comes great opportunities to introduce solutions that do things smarter and more efficiently. One of several technologies that can help is industrial automation that’s more flexible, quicker to deploy and more precise than ever before. Franco Cevolini, CEO, CRP Technology...
These sensors determine/calculate the hotness or coldness of non-living and living things. So thermistors are often useful in these sensors. You can use thermistors because they are sensitive to small changes in temperature. When the temperature changes, the impedance of the thermistor changes too....
