carbide
Hard cutting material
Carbide is a compound of carbon with a metal or other element.
Calcium carbide reacts with water to produce acetylene gas.
Tungsten carbide, extremely hard, is used in cutting tools and drill bits: carbide-tipped saw blades.
In metalworking, "carbide" often refers to these tungsten carbide tools themselves.
