A carbide tool is a cutting tool that is made from a combination of tungsten carbide and cobalt. Carbide tools are used for metal and woodworking because they can cut through hard materials with high accuracy and durability. Some examples of carbide tools are turning tools, rotating tools, and lathe tools.
A carbide blade is a saw blade that has carbide tips attached to the teeth. Carbide is a composite material made up of carbon and other minerals, such as tungsten or titanium. Carbide blades are very durable and can cut through a variety of materials, such as metal, wood, plastic, and concrete. Carbide blades are especially useful for cutting hard and tough metals, such as stainless steel and cast iron. Carbide blades can also withstand high temperatures and high speeds, making them ideal for fast and precise cutting.
