The Triten overlay plate range has been developed to combat abrasion, erosion and impact at either ambient or elevated temperatures. The range comprises different hardfacing chromium or tungsten carbide alloys deposited onto a carbon steel or alloy substrate.
The recommended method of cutting overlay plate is by plasma-arc, as the high chromium and carbon contents of the hardfacing overlay preclude the use of oxy-fuel and most mechanical means. The special properties of the very hard overlay alloy and a ductile substrate allows these materials to be formed and fabricated into complex shapes, including concave or convex curves.
Wear resistant liners may be installed into structures using a variety of methods including plug welding, stud welding and bolting. Fabrications can be produced by conventional welding of the carbon steel substrate.
