Abstract
A hard surfacing alloy composition formed from an alloy containing correlated percentages of chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, manganese, columbium, titanium, carbon, silicon and iron, the balance being nickel. The alloy exhibits a good combination of hot hardness at elevated temperature and weldability.
Claims5
A nickel-base alloy suitable for use as a hard surfacing material and characterized by good weldability and elevated temperature wear resistance, said alloy consisting of (weight percent) about 27 to 30% chromium, about 7 to 9.5% molybdenum, about 4 to 6% tungsten, about 0.75 to 1.3% manganese, 0.05 to 0.5% titanium, 0.2 to 0.75% columbium, about 1.2 to 1.8% carbon, 1 to 1.75% silicon, iron up to about 5%, and the balance essentially nickel.
A nickel-base alloy useful as a hard surfacing material and consisting of (weight percent) 25 to 31% chromium, 6 to 10% molybdenum, 3 to 8% tungsten, the sum of the molybdenum plus tungsten being at least 10.5% but not higher than 16%, 0.5 to 2% manganese, up to 1% columbium, up to 1% titanium, the sum of the manganese, columbium and titanium being at least 1%, 1 to 2% carbon, 0.75 to 2% silicon, up to 10% iron and the balance essentially nickel.
