Extreme Abrasion Resistant Chromium Carbide Overlay Plate
CHROMEWELD™ Ti IS SPECIALLY BLENDED TO COMBAT IMPACT & ABRASION
CHROMEWELD Ti is a unique material that is ideal for surfaces requiring high levels of abrasion resistance, along with impact protection. It is a premium grade of overlay wear plate developed with an ultra-tough matrix and finely dispersed abrasion and impact resistant, titanium carbides.
Incredible hardness, unrivaled performance
CHROMEWELD Ti typical hardness ranges from 56 - 60 HRC and will remain abrasion resistant at temperatures up to 1200 degrees F.
CHROMEWELD Ti plate surface exhibits hairline cracks which is a natural stress-relieving phenomenon essential to the performance of the plate enabling it to be formed and rolled without damage.
CHROMEWELD™ Ti Fabrication Facts
Machining: CHROMEWELD cannot be machined by ordinary methods. Overlay surface may be finished by grinding only. Countersunk holes may be produced using EDM, Plasma or Carbon Arc gouging. Pre-machined mild steel inserts may be welded in straight holes for additional machining.
Cold Bending: When using a press brake, forming should be perpendicular to the weld pass direction. Plate rolling should be performed in the direction of the overlay beads. Forming CHROMEWELD Ti to the outside will cause cross-check cracks to open. This may require post-fabrication weld repair using suitable weld rod/wire.
Mechanical Information
CHROMEWELD Ti typical hardness ranges from 56-60 HRC based on weld deposit thickness. The surface of the plate is a composite of titanium carbides in a high chromium martensitic matrix. The surface of the plate exhibits numerous hairline cracks which are a natural stress relieving phenomenon that is essential to the performance of the plate and enable it to be formed, bent, and rolled without damage.
General Overlay Chemistry
- Standard Plate size is 90” X 120”. (2.29m x 3.05m)
- CHROMEWELD Ti displays excellent abrasion resistance along with impact protection.
- CHROMEWELD Ti overlay will remain abrasion resistant at temperatures up to 1200 degrees Fahrenheit. (649 C)
- Standard Thickness Range from 1/8” on 1/4” (3mm on 6mm) through 1/2” on 1/2” (12mm on 12mm)
Your specific application needs, including custom requirements (thickness, alloy and size), are capable at JADCO. The JADCO process produces a microstructure consisting of fully martensitic matrix filled with primary carbides. This structure provides outstanding abrasion resistance in the most challenging applications.
