➨Incandescent bulbs typically use a tungsten filament because of tungsten's high melting point. A tungsten filament inside a light bulb can reach temperatures as high as 4,500 degrees Fahrenheit. Without this glass covering and the vacuum it helps create, the filament would overheat and oxidize in a matter or moments.
