Tungsten shares for demanding agricultural work
Tungsten shares are designed to reduce wear in the areas that work in direct contact with the soil. They incorporate tungsten carbide reinforcements at strategic points of the part to preserve their working geometry for longer.
They are especially useful on abrasive, dry, compact soils or soils with stones, where a conventional agricultural share may wear more quickly.
At Electrochannel you will find different references for seed drills, cultivators, chisels and other tillage implements. Before placing your order, always check the measurements, holes and fixing system.
Types of tungsten-reinforced shares
Each model is designed for a specific function and implement. The reference, geometry and position of the carbide plates determine its behaviour on the soil.
L-49-T seed drill share
Model intended for furrow opening and sowing work. The reinforcement helps maintain the shape of the area that comes into contact with the soil for longer.
L-13AP-T share for chisel and cultivator
Share with central rib for cultivator or chisel work. It is intended for jobs where the part must penetrate and work continuously on compact or abrasive soils.
Points for scarifiers
Parts intended to break hardened layers and promote aeration or soil decompaction. The reinforcement protects the areas subjected to the greatest friction.
Points and shares for tillage
Reinforced models for agricultural implements that work continuously against the soil and need to preserve their profile for more hours of use.
Advantages of tungsten carbide
Tungsten carbide is incorporated in the areas of greatest wear to protect the base steel and help preserve the functional geometry of the share.
- Greater wear resistance: especially useful on dry, hard or abrasive soils.
- Geometry preservation: helps maintain the shape of the point or cutting area for longer.
- Fewer replacements: may reduce the frequency of replacement compared with a conventional part under comparable conditions.
- Greater work continuity: reduces stoppages associated with premature wear of parts.
- Localised application: the reinforcement is placed at the points subjected to the greatest friction.
Conventional shares or tungsten shares
Conventional steel shares remain a suitable solution for many jobs, especially on less abrasive soils or when the number of hours of use does not justify a reinforced part.
Tungsten shares can be more cost-effective when standard parts wear quickly and require frequent changes during the season.
Factors that influence cost-effectiveness
- Soil abrasion level.
- Presence of stones and hard materials.
- Working depth and speed.
- Number of hectares worked.
- Cost and replacement frequency of conventional shares.
- Time lost during part changes.
How to choose a tungsten share
The presence of tungsten alone does not guarantee compatibility with any machinery. To select the part correctly, the reference and all its dimensions must be checked.
- Reference: compare the original reference and the reinforced reference.
- Length and width: they must match the implement configuration.
- Thickness: check that it fits correctly on the arm or support.
- Holes: check their diameter, shape and centre-to-centre distance.
- Mounting direction: confirm whether the part is right-hand, left-hand, central or reversible.
- Type of work: sowing, cultivation, scarifying or decompaction.
- Soil conditions: assess hardness, humidity, stones and abrasion level.
Care and maintenance
- Cleaning: remove soil, mud and plant remains after each working day.
- Inspection: check the condition of the base steel, welds and carbide plates.
- Fixings: check bolt tightness to avoid movement and vibrations.
- Impacts: replace the part if it shows cracks, deformation or detachment of the reinforcement.
- Wear: change the share when it has lost the geometry required to perform the work correctly.
- Storage: store parts in a dry and protected place.
Frequently asked questions about tungsten shares
What is the difference between a normal share and a tungsten share?
The tungsten share incorporates carbide reinforcements in the areas subject to the greatest wear. This helps preserve the working shape for longer compared with a conventional part under similar conditions.
How do I know if it is compatible with my machinery?
You must check the reference, length, width, thickness, holes and mounting type. The implement brand alone does not guarantee compatibility.
Is it recommended for stony soils?
It can be a good option on stony and abrasive soils, but excessive impacts should be avoided. Suitability will depend on the part design, the implement and the specific working conditions.
How long does a tungsten share last?
There is no fixed duration. It depends on the soil, depth, speed, humidity, stones, number of hectares and placement of the carbide reinforcement.
Can I buy tungsten shares online?
Yes. You can select the reference and required units from the website. Before buying, compare the measurements of the installed share with those indicated in the product sheet.
Find the right tungsten share
Check the available references, dimensions and fixing systems. You can also send us the details or a photograph of the installed part to help you find a compatible spare part.
