Carboride™ Hardfacing

Surface Engineering's Carboride Hardfacing products are designed to resist severe abrasion in combination with excellent corrosion resistance, adhesive wear resistance, and high temperature resistance up to 1100º Fahrenheit. The deposits contain up to 65% Fused Tungsten Carbide in Nickel-Chrome-Silicon-Boron matrices ranging in hardness from Rc18 to 62 for variances in toughness and impact requirements. These self-fluxing alloys containing Boron provide for high bond strengths between the Wc particles and the matrix eliminating wear caused by the release of the hard Wc particles upon impact. The composites provide for ease of weldability and the deposits are smooth and uniform. Our Carboride products may be appled by GTAW, SMAW, PTA, Oxy-Acetylene, Spray & Fuse, Manual Torch, and our most popular composition of 40% Nickel-Chrome-Boron and 60% Tungsten Carbide is even available in the form of MIG wire.

Seaco Carboride product compositions are designated by five (5) digit numbers, whereas the first two digits indicate the percentage of matrix, the second two indicate the percentage of Tungsten Carbide, and last digit indicates the matrix hardness. Hence, Carboride 40606 would be a composition of 40% Rc 60 NiCrSiB and 60% Tungsten Carbide. Compositions may be customized to suit individual application requirements.
