Counterweights made from tungsten alloy
Due to its special properties, tungsten heavy alloy is usually used in the counterweight of yacht, sailboats, submarines, etc.
Chinatungsten bears abundant experience in supply of tungsten alloy counterweights to different overseas yachts’ manufacturers, up to the most specific designs requirement.
Brick-shape counterweights are the typical one we have ever been supplying in bulk quantities. By their own, our client designs and machines the bricks into the integrated counterweight parts with tungsten alloy pins’ connecting function.
