1/16" (1,6mm)813–1018 HV / 64–69 HRCArc spray / metallizingAn Fe-Cr-B based alloy combining anti-corrosion resistance with excellent erosion resistance
Power industry: applied to fluidized bed and pulverized coal boiler screens, and superheater tubes
Protection against erosion and corrosion
Low friction coefficient, excellent thermal conductivity
Withstands repeated thermal cycling
High hardness at elevated temperature

Structure: under the influence of surface friction and high temperatures, the alloy transforms from a crystalline structure into an amorphous / nanocrystalline one to a depth of 2–5 microns, forming a metallurgical structure very similar to glass.
