Why Tungsten Carbide for Horses?
Tungsten carbide is one of the toughest materials on Earth. It’s commonly used in industrial tools, surgical instruments, and even ballpoint pen tips. But in horse care, it offers something unique:
- Extreme durability in horseshoes
- Long-lasting sharpness in veterinary tools
- Reliable performance in rough, wet, or high-speed conditions
This makes it ideal for working horses who spend hours on rugged terrain, and racing horses who need peak performance on the track.
From Madisonville to Churchill Downs: A Kentucky Dream
Tungco is based in Madisonville, Kentucky, where horse culture runs deep. Our team dreams of a day when the Kentucky Derby — the most iconic horse race in the country — partners with us. Refined right here in our hometown, our high performing tungsten products help shape the shoes that propel our dreams forward.

As CEO Cliff Nance puts it:
“In the hard metals world, nothing out-performs tungsten.”
