· JVASP-108916· VWC2

VWC2 is a vanadium-based hard metal or carbide composite, likely belonging to the tungsten-carbide or vanadium-carbide family used for cutting and wear-resistant applications. The material is employed in precision machining tools, metal-cutting inserts, and industrial wear components where extreme hardness and thermal stability are required. VWC2 offers superior wear resistance compared to standard tool steels and is valued in high-speed manufacturing where tool life and dimensional consistency directly impact production economics.

Export Control

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
