The Process

Hardfacing is a surfacing procedure using welding to add protective cladding onto the working surfaces of heavy industry equipment. Typically, hardfacing can be deposited by various welding methods:

• Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW)
• Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), including both Gas-shielded and Open Arc Welding
• Oxyfuel Welding (OFW)
• Submerged Arc Welding (SAW)
• Electroslag Welding (ESW)
• Plasma Transferred Arc Welding (PTAW), also called Powder Plasma welding system
• Thermal spraying
• Cold polymer compounds
• Laser Cladding
• Hardpaint

HP Plate uses open arc welding. Commonly applied materials include cobalt-based alloys (such as stellite), nickel-based alloys, chromium carbide alloys and NOREM.
