Recycle carbide at Skrotify — get paid best for your tungsten
Do you operate a workshop, manufacturing industry or have machines with carbide wear parts? Then you are sitting on a very valuable material. Carbide -- often referred to as tungsten carbide -- is one of the most profitable materials to recycle. The price is high, the demand is global and recycling saves large amounts of energy compared to new manufacturing.
Hos Scrotify We make it easy, profitable and traceable to recycling carbide — whether it's drills, cutters, inserts or tool wear from production.
Current price of carbide (April 2025)
According to our latest price list (April 1, 2025), we pay up to:
- SEK 163.50-166.00/kg for carbide drill
- 146.50-149,00 SEK/kg for carbide inserts
With these levels, even smaller quantities can generate significant revenue — especially for companies with recurrent wear and tear in CNC machines, lathes or cutting machining.

Environmental Benefits of Recycling Carbide
Tungsten is a finite resource and mining occurs primarily in China, which has both geopolitical and environmental impacts. Recycling reduces the need for new extraction by over 70% in energy consumption and creates circular flows in industry.
