Microstructure
Mixture of high volume hexagonal shaped chromium carbide in tough austenitic and martensitic matrix. Volume Fraction Primary Carbides: 30%. Relief cracks are normal in the hardfacing.
Processing
- AbrasaPlate can be welded on the mild steel using standard low hydrogen consumables. For welding the hardfacing side to structural steels we recommend using AI-1707 stainless wire, or AI-0207 electrodes.
- AbrasaPlate can be rolled or pressed. Diameters depend on thickness of plate.
- AbrasaPlate can be cut using plasma (from the back side), water jet or laser.
