Wearshield T & D produces a crack-free wear-resistant tool steel deposit with a hardness of 58-62 HRc. This hardness can be further increased to between 63-65HRc after tempering (540-600°C). It is particularly suitable for APLs involving severe metal-to-metal wear coupled with elevated temperatures (up to 540°C). Ideally suited to the buildup of worn steel dies, cutting tools or the APL of wear-resistant surfaces to carbon and low alloy steels.
Typical Applications
Punch and forging dies
Shear blades
Trimmers
