The world's largest manufacturer of cored hardfacing wires

Contents
Since its foundation in 1966, the Welding Alloys Group has become the global specialist in the development of high alloy content cored wires and programmable equipment for surfacing applications. Using production machinery of our own design, Welding Alloys now designs and manufactures a range of welding wires unequalled in the global market. By responding to the needs of our customers, and maintaining a continuous and significant research investment, we are able to lead the market in cored welding wire technology. Performance and quality criteria are becoming ever more stringent and require ever more complex materials. Shortages of raw materials are leading increasingly to the development of composite components, with surfacing provided by the hardfacing method, using sophisticated allloys. The Welding Alloys Group are proud to bring ground-breaking hardfacing technology to our customers.

Cored Wires
Hardfacing by arc welding is a surfacing operation to extend the service life of industrial components, pre-emptively on new components, or as part of a maintenance programme. The result of significant savings in machine down time and production costs has meant that this process has been adopted across many industries. For each industrial application and wear phenomena, there is a Welding Alloys cored welding wire to provide wear resistance. Due to the unrivalled flexibility and ease of application, cored wires are used in many situations in workshops, on site, for new parts or for repair. An alloy may be deposited by various welding methods; Open arc welding (O) Gas shielded welding MIG/MAG (G) Submerged arc welding (S) Thermal spraying (as shown by the symbol) Welding Alloys Quality Control teams are an integral part of the production process at all our production sites, to ensure our continued commitment to delivering high quality, standard-setting welding consumables.

Understanding wear phenomena and material attributes

Wear Mechanism Description
Metal surfaces in relative motion forced into contact with or without lubricant. Degradation by the formation of micro-welds between the contacting surfaces. Wear by relative movement of mineral particles of suitable hardness, shape and texture to remove material from the metal surface. Wear by relative movement under pressure of mineral particles of suitable hardness, shape and texture to remove material from the metal surface, leaving superficial deformation. As above but in a high-temperature environment, leading generally to softening of the metal or its constituents. Repeated high-speed impacts between mineral particles and a material surface. Local destruction by tearing out of metallic grains. Tearing out of grains from the metal surface by the formation and implosion of bubbles in a liquid in rapid motion. Impact between two materials, one of which provokes deformation or rupture of the surface of the other. This phenomenon is controlled by the toughness or ductility of the two materials. Cyclic deformation not exceeding the elastic limit of the material. Degradation over time by localised stress concentrations. Cyclic exposure to high temperatures leading to permanent deformation by alternate expansion and contraction. Alteration of the structure and properties of the material. Creation of a poorly adhering oxide layer that reforms constantly. Degradation by loss of material thickness. Degradation of the material by chemical reaction with its environment. Complex phenomenon involving numerous parameters.

Attributes
Description
Repair by resurfacing to the original or specified dimensions. Application of a corrosion-resistant protective cladding. Layer of weld metal providing a good metallurgical transition between the base metal and the coating. For welded joints between similar or dissimilar materials. Ability of the material to resist impact, heat, friction and abrasion simultaneously for edge retention of cutting tools. Ability of a material to increase its surface hardness under the effect of impact or high pressure. In general, this increases wear resistance. Suitability for machining by removal of metal shavings, e.g. turning, milling or drilling.
