WC-10Co4Cr Thermal Spray Powder
- Both Agglomerated & Sintered and Sintered and Crushed powder are available. Agglomerated and sintered powders are spherical or near-spherical with good flowability. Sintered and crushed powders are irregular.
- The maximum service temperature is up to 500℃.
- The dense coating has high hardness with excellent resistance to abrasive wear, fretting wear, adhesive wear, and erosion wear.
- Replacing hard chrome plating.
- Cobalt &Chrome has better corrosion resistance and wear properties than Cobalt, especially in wetting and corrosion environments.
- Mainly used in aircraft landing gear, gate valves, ball valves, paper rollers, hydraulic cylinders, compressor rods, metallurgical rollers, mechanical parts, etc.
