ASM 130

Iron Chromium Stainless Steel Thermal Spray wire

Description & applications

These wires are chromium steel alloy that contain other alloying elements like nickel, manganese and molybdenum, etc., that enhance their excellent corrosion and wear resistance. Wires with additional molybdenum content offer good resistance in hot and cold sulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid, vinegar and sulfur dioxide vapor. These wires are exclusively manufactured for the electric arc wire and combustion wire thermal spray processes. These wires are most suitable for salvage and restoration. They are successfully used on machine elements such as journal surfaces of all kinds, cylinder liners, pistons, valve stems, pump plungers, impellers, hydraulic rams, valve plugs, printing and paper rolls, etc.

ASM 130 is recommended for applications that require a hard coating with good wear resistance and corrosion protection. It is a low shrink material. It is the best choice for coating curved surfaces such as small diameter shafts. Using the combustion wire spray process, ASM 130 can be sprayed very thick, greater than 13 mm (0.5 in), which provides a considerable wear reserve for use in applications such as hydroelectric plants.

Applications

  • Corrosion and wear resistant coatings for salvage and restoration
  • Machine parts in low concentrated organic acids including pump sleeves, Pump impellers, shafts, valves and printing rollers

  • Typical industrial applications where coatings of these wires are used include agricultural machinery, paper and printing, textile manufacturing, power generation, cement industry and paper mill components

Specifications

Physical properties of the coating

  • Coating properties can vary significantly as they are dependant on the chosen equipment, gun hardware, coating parameters and coating thickness.

  • When properly applied, these coatings are designed to achieve the surface hardness necessary for good wear resistance.

  • These coatings are corrosion resistant for various environments

  • In general, deposit efficiencies of ≥ 70 % can be achieved, when correctly sprayed.

  • Coatings are readily machined for dimensional control and fair surface finishes are achievable.
