Urgent Update: Sustained Rise in Tungsten Carbide Raw Material Prices—Secure Current Pricing to Mitigate Future Cost Increases
In the fast-paced world of industrial manufacturing, raw material costs can make or break your project's bottom line. At KOIHO BEETER CARBIDE, we pride ourselves on delivering top-tier road milling teeth and tungsten carbide products while keeping our clients ahead of market shifts. Based on the latest price trend charts from Chinatungsten Online, tungsten carbide and its key precursors have seen explosive increases throughout 2025, with no signs of slowing down. This relentless rise—driven by supply bottlenecks and soaring demand—means future costs will only climb higher. The smart move? Place your order now to lock in current pricing and shield your business from inevitable hikes. Read on to see the data, understand the drivers, and learn how we can help you save.
The Data Speaks Volumes: A Year of Unprecedented Price Escalation
The provided price trend chart for tungsten products from January to December 10, 2025, illustrates a clear and steep upward trajectory across all key materials. Wolframite concentrate (a primary tungsten ore) started the year at approximately RMB 143,000 per ton and has surged to around RMB 363,000 per ton by mid-December. Ammonium paratungstate (APT), a critical intermediate, jumped from about RMB 168,000 per ton to RMB 535,000 per ton. Tungsten powder, directly tied to carbide production, has skyrocketed from RMB 316 per kg to a staggering RMB 880 per kg.
Recent updates confirm this momentum: As of December 8, 2025, tungsten powder reached RMB 840 per kg, while tungsten carbide powder hit RMB 780 per kg on December 3—marking a jaw-dropping 150.8% increase from January levels. Just days earlier, on December 2, tungsten carbide powder was at RMB 775 per kg, up 149.2% year-to-date. These figures align with the chart's pattern of steady climbs, accelerating in the second half of the year.
The Bottom-Line Impact: Higher Costs Ahead, But Savings Available Now
For your road milling operations, these raw material hikes directly translate to elevated production costs for our high-performance teeth like the HUB-07 and HUZ-05A. If trends hold, a typical order could cost 20-50% more by early 2026, squeezing margins on asphalt projects or heavy-duty engineering. We've already adjusted pricing to reflect these realities, but delaying means absorbing the full brunt of future increases.
The silver lining: Ordering today locks in pre-hike rates, delivering immediate cost savings and ensuring stock availability amid shortages. Clients who've acted early this year have saved thousands—don't miss this opportunity.
