No ka mea he mau mea kū hoʻokahi ka tungsten e like me ke kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, ka helu hoʻoheheʻe kiʻekiʻe, ka conductivity thermal maikaʻi loa a me ka conductivity uila, hoʻohana nui ʻia nā ʻāpana mīkini ʻano kūikawā tungsten i nā ʻoihana like ʻole. I ka hana ʻana, hoʻohana pinepine ʻia nā ʻāpana tungsten i nā noi e koi ai i ke kūpaʻa wela kiʻekiʻe, ka mīkini pololei, a me ke kūpaʻa ʻana. ʻO kekahi mau hoʻohana maʻamau no nā ʻāpana mīkini tungsten penei: Aerospace a me Defence: Ma muli o kona kūpaʻa a me ka hiki ke kū i nā wela kiʻekiʻe, hoʻohana ʻia ka tungsten i ka aerospace a me nā noi pale no nā ʻāpana e like me nā propellant nozzles, nā mea hana kiʻekiʻe a me nā counterweights. Lapaʻau a me nā niho: Hoʻohana ʻia ʻo Tungsten i ka hana ʻana i nā mea lapaʻau e like me nā collimators no ka radiation therapy a me nā mea pale X-ray i nā mea hana kiʻi lāʻau. Electronics and Semiconductors: Hoʻohana ʻia ʻo Tungsten i ka hana ʻana i nā ʻāpana hana semiconductor, me nā mea hoʻomehana, nā electrodes a me nā moku evaporation. Kaʻa a me ka lawe ʻana: Hoʻohana ʻia nā ʻāpana Tungsten i nā kaʻa kaʻa a me nā noi hoʻokele kiʻekiʻe e like me nā ʻāpana mīkini wela kiʻekiʻe a me nā pilina uila kaumaha. Ma keʻano holoʻokoʻa, ua waiwai ʻia nā ʻāpana mīkini hana tungsten no ko lākou hiki ke kū i nā kūlana koʻikoʻi a hāʻawi i ka hana pololei a hilinaʻi i nā ʻano hana ʻenehana.
