Co-based

Hardfacing PTA and Laser cobalt-based metal powders are a key element in hardfacing, especially when it comes to applications that require the highest wear resistance, corrosion resistance and temperature stability. These powders offer outstanding properties that make them ideal for use in components that are subject to extreme loads, particularly in demanding industries. Why cobalt-based metal powders? Cobalt-based metal powders are characterised by their exceptional wear and corrosion resistance, as well as their outstanding resistance to high temperatures and chemical influences. These properties make them the preferred choice for build-up welding in industries that depend on maximum reliability and durability, such as aerospace, power generation, mining and oil and gas.
Co-based hardfacing products
Co-based hardfacing products from Castolin are specially designed to withstand extreme wear conditions. These products provide excellent abrasion and impact resistance and are ideal for applications where high wear resistance is required. They are particularly suitable for use in the mining, cement and steel industries, as well as in other areas where components are subject to heavy wear.
