COMPLEX Carbide Overlay Plate FOR ULTRA-DEMANDING CONDITIONS
CHROMEWELD™ COMPLEX CHROMIUM CARBIDE PLATE
CHROMEWELD™ COMPLEX is a composite of small primary chromium iron carbides with secondary Niobium, Vanadium, and Tungsten carbides in an austenitic matrix overlay plate optimized for abrasion resistance and toughness over traditional chromium carbide plates.
Incredible hardness, unrivaled performance
CHROMEWELD™ COMPLEX typical hardness ranges from 65 – 70 HRC and will remain abrasion resistant at temperatures up to 1100 degrees F.
CHROMEWELD™ COMPLEX plate surface exhibits fissures which are typical stress relieving characteristics essential to the abrasion and impact performance.
CHROMEWELD™ COMPLEX Fabrication Facts
Mechanical Information
CHROMEWELD™ COMPLEX typical hardness range from 65-70 HRC depending upon deposit thickness. The surface of the plate is a composite of tungsten carbide combined with chromium iron carbides. The surface of the plate exhibits numerous hairline cracks which are essential to the performance of the plate and enable it to be formed, bent and rolled without damage.
