Cermet sticks with a uniform round cross- section. The articles of varying lengths and diameters can be solid or they can be perforated and have cooling channels, with blunt ends. Some of the articles may also have been chamfered.
The articles are made of cermet, namely of sintered metal carbide on the basis of tungsten carbide with cobalt as the binding substance.
Based on their low degree of processing, simple form and shape, the articles can be used for a wide range of uses, for example, as reinforcement elements. If further processed, the articles may be used for tools and as tools.
