Tungsten alloy parts have good shielding effect. There are many kinds of tungsten alloy shielding parts, which can be used in medical industry, nuclear industry, scientific research departments and other fields, mainly made into devices for shielding radioactive substances to avoid injury.

Tungsten alloy shielding parts have good shielding benefits because of the high density of tungsten alloy. It is found that the high density of metal has a good shielding effect on radiation, and the shielding effect is better with the increase of the density of metal. Therefore, tungsten alloy shielding parts have good shielding effect. Tungsten alloy shielding parts with high specific gravity have good shaping, machinability and weldability. Compared with the toxicity of lead, tungsten alloy with high specific gravity has environmental protection characteristics, that is, the shielding parts of tungsten alloy have no harm to human safety.

Today, high specific gravity tungsten alloy has been widely used in various CT, linear accelerator, PET, γ camera and other medical equipment, can provide better ray protection and beam guidance.
