Tungsten Carbide Overlay: The Ultimate Wear Solution for Extreme Conditions
Tungsten carbide overlay (TCO) plates deliver unmatched hardness and wear resistance, making them ideal for industries battling severe abrasion. With HV 1500+ hardness, TCO outperforms traditional materials in mining, cement, and steel production. Its brittle-tough balance ensures durability under high-impact loads, reducing downtime and replacement costs.
Key Applications: Mining, Construction, and Power Generation
In the mining industry, TCO plates protect crusher liners, buckets, and chutes from damage caused by abrasive minerals. Construction machinery such as bulldozer blades and mixer drums can thus have their service life extended. Power plants use TCO in coal mills and ash systems to resist abrasive wear. The oil/gas industry also uses TCO in harsh environments for drill bits and valve components.
Future Growth: Recycling Tech and New Industries
Advancements in laser cladding and 3D overlay welding are expanding TCO’s use in aerospace and recycling machinery. As industries prioritize cost efficiency and sustainability, TCO’s ability to be repaired and reused will drive adoption. Expect broader use in agriculture, dredging, and heavy manufacturing as wear-resistant demands grow.
