Tungsten and its alloys are used extensively for filaments for electric lamps, electron tubes and television tubes. As it has the highest melting point of all metals it is used in numerous high-temperature applications. High-speed tool steels contain tungsten, as does a new “painless” dental drill which spins at ultra-high speeds. Tungsten carbide is immensely hard and is of great importance to the metal-working, mining and petroleum industries. Calcium and magnesium tungstates are widely used in fluorescent lighting.

Metaphysical

Tungsten is a strong and powerful protector, highly resistant to heat and other forms of radiation. It has a core quality of strength in structure in difficult environments, including extraterrestrial environments. Generates Boldness and Self Esteem
