A
Selection of Our Product Specialties
Here are some of the diverse products we have been called on to manufacture for our industrial clients. The parts described here are not stock items, but have been custom-manufactured to client specifications. If you have a need for similar products-- or, for that matter, any wear parts, machine parts or dies not shown here-- we will be pleased to work with you to develop and produce a high-performance, precision part meeting or exceeding your most demanding specifications. CERBIDETM
AUGER VALVES
materials through a chamber or housing. As the
auger screw rotates, the material in the chamber is “pushed” to the
end of the chamber and exits through a dispense point. If the material
is abrasive, the constant flow can take its toll on the auger and, in
time, it will wear and eventually leak. To overcome this problem,
Philadelphia Carbide has developed both solid tungsten carbide and
Cerbide™ auger valves, whose wear qualities and service life are
vastly superior to traditional stainless steel auger valves.
SpecificationsSLITTING BLADES FOR
CIGAR-MANUFACTURING We
are a contract manufacturer of precision slitting blades for cigar-manufacturing cellophane overwrap machines. We also provide wear resistant & corrosion resistant coatings and cutting tool re-sharpening Although we manufacture blades from virtually any materials, including tool steels, stainless steel, carbon steels and ceramics, we specialize in the production of tungsten carbide blades. Our tungsten carbide slitting blades have a surface finish of up to 2 RMS and have a service life of more than 100 times that of steel blades. As a contract manufacturer, all our work is customized to your exact specifications. To this end, we work closely with you on both design and material selection. Whether we are fielding orders for small-quantity prototypes or large quantity production runs, count on Philadelphia Carbide to complete your project on time while maintaining the highest quality control standards in the industry. MIXER PINS UTILIZING PCC ULTRA LIFE Cost-effective mixing of gypsum wallboard slurry or other viscous processing materials depends on high-performance, high-capacity mixing pins. We have been a contract manufacturer of precision mixing pins for a wide variety of
Carbide-fluted Hollow Point Drill Bits Hollow point drill bits are used for drilling a wide variety of thin materials, such as layers of paper or fabric. When layered materials are drilled, the resulting waste flows through the hollow passageway of the drill bit. Unless the inside and outside surfaces of the tube are perfectly smooth, the rapid build-up of waste materials can produce considerable friction and heat, resulting in clogging of the tube and melting of the work piece. It is also more difficult to drill a straight, uniform diameter hole as the bit diameter decreases in size and its geometry changes. Through years of precision machining experience, Philadelphia Carbide has perfected its techniques and successfully overcome the difficulties inherent in manufacturing hollow drill bits. Today, we are the only manufacturer in the United States capable of producing:
- Carbide-fluted hollow point drill bits featuring outside diameters from 0.062” to
0.625" (custom sizes also available); lengths from 2” and up. PLUNGER PUMPS FOR WATER JET AND PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRIES. During the last 30 years, demand for high pressure pumps for water jet blasting and water jet cutting operations has grown dramatically. Philadelphia Carbide has met this need with a wide range of pump components, including plungers, pistons, backup and distance rings, sleeves, bushings, needles, valve seats, plugs and balls. Our components have been subjected to working pressures in a range of 10,000 psi (750bar) up to 70,000 psi (5000bar). In the past dozen years alone, we have supplied pump parts and components to OEMs around the world and have offered advice on high pressure applications to companies in more than 40 countries. Today's water jetting pumps often operates in the most demanding service conditions, sometimes in the presence of harsh chemicals, sometimes in a gaseous environment. We have developed special grades of ceramics and carbides, specially tailored for different service conditions, to ensure optimum performance and long life for your parts and components. Philadelphia Carbide is one of a small number of companies capable of finishing your plungers to a surface finish of up to 0.3 RMSD (.005µm). This exceptional finish is crucial to maximize your plungers and packing service life. All parts manufactured by Philadelphia Carbide go through extensive quality control to guarantee they meet all your technical specifications---starting from certification to ensure the purity and physical properties of the raw materials, through rigid manufacturing controls, to highly advanced measurement capabilities of the final product. Cerbides. One of the most extraordinary new materials to come along in recent years is CerbideTM, which combines the properties of ceramics and cemented tungsten carbide. Cerbide offers measurably higher levels of abrasion and erosion resistance than tungsten carbide and has remarkable formability as well. Ask your Philadelphia Carbide sales representative if Cerbide is right for your application. Need threaded rods? If you’ve ever experienced difficulty finding a machine shop capable of manufacturing hard-to-thread carbide rods or studs, your search is over. Count on Philadelphia Carbide for coarse or fine threaded rods 1/8" to 3" diameter and up to 8" in length.
