Duroxite® 200 Pipe is manufactured by depositing specially formulated abrasive materials on a mild steel base using a traditional arc welding process. The overlay material is composed of primary chromium-rich carbides and refined multiple-alloy complex carbides dispersed evenly in a ductile eutectic austenite matrix. The hardfacing overlay pipe is designed with extreme wear resistance for working in a severe sliding wear environment. Duroxite® 200 Pipe is available with single or double overlay passes. Schedule 40 and Schedule 80 steel pipe as well as tubing can be used as base pipes to make Duroxite® 200 Pipe. Duroxite® 200 Pipe can be fabricated as square-to-round transitions, elbows, T or Y-shaped, or as long sweeps.
Key Benefits
Duroxite® 200 Pipe is widely used in the mining, cement, oil sands, dredging, recycling and steel production industries. Some specific applications include:
Mining
Cement
Dredging
Steel
For more information on applications see the Duroxite® Product brochure.
1) Surface hardness is measured on machined flat surface just below overlay surface.
2) ASTM G65 - Procedure A weight loss, is a standard test measuring sliding abrasion resistance using a dry sand/rubber wheel apparatus. ASTM G65-Procedure A is the most severe test method.
3) ASTM G65 - Procedure A weight loss, wear test is conducted at 75% depth of the overlay materials to ensure consistently good wear resistance from the top surface through to the depth of 75% of the overlay.
The microstructure of Duroxite® 200 pipes contains primary chromium-rich carbides and refined multiple-alloy complex carbides with a typical hardness of 2500 to 3000 HK*) dispersed evenly in a ductile eutectic austenite matrix. The typical volume fraction of primary chromium-rich carbides is maintained between 30 to 40% with 7 to 10% of multi-alloy complex carbides.
*) HK is the Knoop microhardness used primarily for very brittle materials.
