• Optimized to fight sliding wear
• Guaranteed hardfacing layer properties
Duroxite® products give proof of their performance in steel production. Duroxite® comes in many grades that are suitable for sliding wear and elevated temperatures. Examples of applications are transition, discharge and diverter chutes, housings for fans and cyclones, guide plates, dampers, pipes and more.
The hardfacing layer of overlay products is always welded on other steel –the baseplate. Using Hardox® wear steel as baseplate in Duroxite® 101 and Duroxite® 201 makes for an outstanding composite material.
Hardox® wear plate has a unique combination of hardness, strength and toughness. The hardness gives a greater wear safety margin compared to using a mild steel baseplate if the hardfacing layer is worn down. The strength and toughness of Hardox® wear plate increase the overlay product’s resistance to impact forces.
Application: Conveyor at foundry
Wear part: Conveyor liner plate
