Many practical applications of Tungsten are based on its high melting point, high density, dimensional stability, and its low vapor pressure. Tungsten’s low vapor pressure at elevated temperatures makes it an excellent material for electron emitters and for electrical contact materials -- where other conductive metals such as copper or silver evaporate/erode under electronic arc conditions Tungsten’s high density gives it a strong capacity to absorb X-rays and gamma radiation making it useful in radiation shielding applications. And, Tungsten is an excellent material for high-vacuum technology, glass seals, furnace construction, welding electrodes, etc. Ed Fagan Inc. stocks Tungsten in a variety of forms and dimensions.
