Tungs-Tone Stylus and Music

The most common packaging for Tungs-tone needles was a tin box that holds eight needles. The tins came later. When the "Tungs-tone" was introduced in 1916, the needles came in a punch-out card. The earliest ad I have seen for this new Victor product is from June 1916. There was trouble over the name when it was registered with the Patent Office, we learn from the August 15, 1916 issue of Talking Machine World. An article states, "The word was rejected by the United States Examiner of Trade-Marks at Washington until he was instructed from the office of the United States Commissioner of Patents to rule differently." The trade-mark examiner felt "Tungs-tone" was too close to "tungsten." In a similar ruling, "Tungsteel" was judged no good for razors and pocket knives. Anyway, Victor was allowed to use the name, and early ads always use a capital letter (Tungs-tone, not tungs-tone), giving the product more dignity.

A Tungsten or Tungs-Tone is a type of phonograph stylus. They are constructed from tungsten wire, which is held in a metal shank. Unlike a steel stylus, a tungsten stylus has a cylindrical rather than a conical shape, meaning that the cross-section of the stylus remains the same as the stylus wears down, which in turn means that tungsten styluses may be used for several plays.

Typically, a new steel needle is required for every record played on an old acoustic phonograph. This is because the record contains abrasive material. In the first few silent tracks this abrasion hones the steel needle to a profile that tracks the grooves properly. The needle continues to wear as it plays the record, so that by the end its diameter has increased to the point where the sharp edges may damage the grooves on subsequent plays.

Tungsten Alloy Radiation Material

In physics, radiation is a process in which energetic particles or energy or waves travel through a medium or space. There are two distinct types of radiation; ionizing and non-ionizing. The word radiation is commonly used in reference to ionizing radiation only (i.e., having sufficient energy to ionize an atom), but it may also refer to non-ionizing radiation. The energy radiates from its source. This geometry naturally leads to a system of measurements and physical units that are equally applicable to all types of radiation. Both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation can be harmful to organisms and can result in changes to the natural environment. 

Tungsten is used in many radiation shielding applications including industrial, nuclear and medical. Because of its high density and high atomic number, is an effective construction material for shielding from gamma rays and x-rays. Lead and boron carbide can shield radiation too, But can’t performance as good as tungsten alloy

Tungsten Carbide Ring
Tungsten carbide is one of the new metals from which jewelry designers have begun to craft tungsten carbide rings, offering a wide variety of styles and designs that fit every taste and budget.

Cobalt chrome wedding rings
Cobalt superalloy has long been used in building jet aircraft engines due to its strength and heat resistance. The technology is now applied to create durable and elegant fashion jewelry. Cobalt chrome alloy offers premium white gold color that is long lasting and does not tarnish. Cobalt rings are harder than steel, yet much lighter than steel.

Stainless Steel Jewelry
It is the image of these times, when the metal that has become what we call stainless steel today, was used to forge one of the ultimate symbols of manhood, the sword. The same proud craftsmanship is brought to bear in the stainless steel jewelry for men.

Shapes of Tungsten Alloy Fishing Jigs

Tungsten weights are an ideal, environment-friendly alternative to lead weights, which are toxic and increasingly being labeled an environmental hazard. Tungsten weights are harder than steel and extremely dense, tungsten being on average 30 percent smaller than its lead counterpart. Tungsten weights are smaller than conventional weights, create twice the sound of lead weights and maintain their shape for longer. Tungsten is also used in the production of other fishing applications, such as tungsten-carbide line cutters and tungsten powder coating for fishing lines.

A fishing sinker or plummet is a weight used to force a lure or bait to increase its rate of sink, anchoring ability, and/or casting distance. Fishing sinkers may be as small as 1/32 of an ounce for applications in shallow water, even smaller for fly fishing applications, or as large as several pounds or considerably more for deep sea fishing. They are formed into nearly innumerable shapes for diverse fishing applications. Environmental concerns surround the usage of most fishing sinker materials.

A jig is a type of fishing lure that usually consisting of a lead sinker with a hook molded into it and usually covered by a soft body to attract fish. However, recently, tungsten alloy fishing weights ( fishing sinkers) is becoming more and more popular among angles because it has the features of high density, small volume, and environmental friendly, and has been taking place of the lead sinker. Jigs are intended to create a jerky, vertical motion, as opposed to spinnerbaits which move through the water horizontally. The jig is very versatile and can be used in both salt water as well as fresh water. Many species are attracted to the lure which has made it popular amongst anglers for years.
The fishing sinker/ weight is made by rare metal - Tungsten, it is an ideal substitute of the lead fishing sinker. It's strong adhesive, semi-solid state, soft for a long term. Tungsten Heavy Alloys concentrate maximum weight in the smallest possible space. They are more often to be used as counterweight in sporting field, such as tungsten alloy fishing sinkers, golf weights, etc.

Advantages of tungsten  
1. Heat resistance
The melting point of tungsten is 3380 degrees Celsius .
And the melting point of iron is only about 1500 degrees Celsius
2. Hard
When tungsten combines with carbon, t will become very hard. The hardness is close to the diamond.
3. High density
The density of tungsten is almost the same with gold.
We can offer tungsten alloy fishing sinkers/weights, tungsten beads, tungsten jig at various shape, such as shape of bullet, drop, tube, semi-drop and cylinder. Besides, we can manufacture fishing sinkers/weights according to your drawings.

What's tungsten alloy fishing sinkers

Tungsten Alloy Fishing Sinkers are large proportion (> 18g/cc), small size. They are against strong wind, light into the water, sinking fast, and are the best alternative to lead sinkers. The Fishing Sinkers are best-selling in Europe, the United States and other developed countries.
Advantages of tungsten alloy fishing weights/sinkers

1. Small volume

High density make tungsten alloy fishing sinkers/weights smaller than the conventional lead fishing weights. It will be hung up far less with a tungsten sinker than with a lead sinker because of its smaller size.

2. HardIt's harder than lead fishing weight. It will not be stuck in the jowl of the fish. So the shape will be maintained longer.

3. Strong wind resistanceAs the high density of tungsten, the tungsten alloy fishing sinker makes your fishing easier. It is extremely sensitive and can actually help you “feel” what the bottom is made of and what your bait is bumping into, such as brush, rocks, mud, etc.Tungsten fishing weights/eyes are an ideal, environment-friendly alternative to lead weights, which are toxic and increasingly being labeled an environmental hazard.The main specifications are: drop type, bullet type, Circular tube type, ball type.
