THIS IS THE STORY OF

How o Most Strategic Material of the War-Invented
in Germany -Was Made Available to the United

Mm . . . Carbotoy is an American trade
mark for cemented tungsten-carbide, an
Hoy second only to diamonds in hardness,
more precious than diamonds as a vital
material in America's war program. It is
used tor the tips of cutting tools, and for
wear-resistant dies. Carboloy is used in
mall quantities; it is difficult to make
and difficult to use- but it has never been
caret in modern times. There is no scarcity

Mca ... The General Electric Company two
years before this had begun research on
tungsten-carbide and foresaw its importance
in industrial production. For immediate use
in its own plants and for easier availability to
others, General Electric undertook the long
and arduous negotiations for the American
rights. Limited rights were obtained in 1928,
with Krupp continuing to export the mate
rial to its United States customers a busi
ness which languished, however, as General
Electric painstakingly developed its -own
Carboloy technique. This paved the way for
General Electric to make the United States
entirely independent of Germany for its
cemented tungsten-carbide supply u early
as .
ported cemented carbides in chunks and
was unsuccessful. General Electric and its
subsidiary, Carboloy Co., Inc. found it
necessary to develop a complete engineering
and manufacturing service, making various
types of Carboloy equipped tools, training
men in their use, and offering to its customers
a specialised and successful production tech
nique. For purposes of fair comparison, a
typical German cemented carbide tool in
1918 cost 822.26 in the United States, while
a comparable American Carboloy tool cost
$11.11.

and 1928 was such a time the measure of
success of industrial adventure is to be found
in profit to the adventurer. By surh a
measure, Carboloy could not lie called
successful. Initial expenses were great. For a
time the Company lost at the rate of 1 1000 a
day, and once had an operating deficit of
more than a million dollars One of the major
contributing reasons was the con tiny ing high
cost of development, standardization, and
training. In 1936-37 alone, training courses
were given to 10,000 men in industry. More
over, six major price reductions were made
in the face of operating looses, until the stand

In 1939, the production of the Carboloy
Company was less than 10,000 lbs.; in 1940,
it was 55,000 lbs.; in 1941, it was 163,000
and in December came Pearl Harbor. Now,
in 1942, the Company's production is going
at a rate that is 45 times that of only four
years ago.

British companies, which had been content
to continue as customers of Krupp, found
themselves cut off from the vital material
when Poland was invaded. Bui the General
Electric Company was able to supply sub.
stantial quantities to British industry im
mediately and since then has continuously
filled British orders. It has, in like manner,
filled Canada's requirements since 1936. It is
currently supplying Canada, Russia, and
other United Nations. All this in addition to
supplying the greatly expanded needs of
American industry.
