Hardox Wearparts added the Duroxite 100 pipe to its Duroxite overlay product line.
According to the company, the finished pipes have the same high wear resistance as Duroxite plate products. Consistent wear properties are guaranteed throughout the pipe down to 75 percent of the overlay thickness as opposed to just the surface of the overlay. The remaining 25 percent of overlay is the transition layer necessary to maintain good bonding to the base plate. The company says an optimal carbide composition ensures homogenous bonding between the base metal and overlay adding to its high wear resistance and long service life.
The Duroxite 100 pipe is available in 6- to 36-in. diameters, and the lengths can be cut to order. In addition, the ends can have customized flanges for easy installation in existing equipment. Finally, the pipe can be ordered with square-to-round transitions, elbows, T- or Y-shaped connections, or as long sweeps.
