Tungsten Carbide/Cobalt/Chromium Powder Description
Thermal sprayed coatings of Tungsten carbide materials in a cobalt matrix offer the best wear protection. For a service that requires better corrosion resistance, a matrix of nickel, cobalt-chromium, or cobalt-chromium-nickel is a good choice. Materials with a higher percentage of matrix produce coatings with better ductility, resulting in improved impact and fretting resistance. Conversely, a lower percentage of matrix offers greater hardness, resulting in better abrasion and wear resistance.
