Abstract
A free-flowing self-bondable flame spray powder derived from an atomized alloy powder is provided in which the particles are characterized by aspherical shapes and have an average particle size within the range of about plus 400 mesh to minus 100 mesh. The aspherically shaped powder is further characterized by a specific surface of about 180 cm.sup.2 /gr and higher and has a composition consisting essentially by weight of up to about 0.1% C, about 3% to 30% Mo, up to about 3% Si, up to about 6% W, about 2.5% to 12% Ti, about 10% to 22% Fe, up to about 0.4% V, and the balance essentially nickel.
