Martensitic Overlays


These alloys are chosen for metal-to-metal wear resistance and for less severe abrasion resistant applications.  Heat resistant is generally up to 1100ºF(595ºC).  Alloy content ranges from 10 to 20% and carbon levels are generally less than 1%.
  Hardness is a good indicator of wear resistance.
High hardness types (over 55 Rc) are considered non-machineable and have a limited deposit thickness.  They will cross-check.
High chromium (10 to 15%) martensitic alloys provide excellent metal-to-metal wear and thermal shock resistance, and moderate corrosion resistance.  In addition, deposits are generally machineable and overlays can be applied crack-free with proper welding procedures.
