8. Microstructure:
Composed of a high proportion of extremely hard primary M7C3 chromium rich carbides dispersed in a ductile eutectic austenite matrix.
Maintains 30% to 50% of primary carbides to provide a good wear resistance and homogenous bonding.
9. Typical Applications:
HART-P-100 Plate is widely used in the mining, power generation(Coal), cement, dredging, steel production, waste handling, glass production, and pulp and paper industries. Some specific applications include:
INDUSTRY | APPLICATONS |
Mining | Chutes, hoppers, liners for truck beds, dozer blades, shovel buckets, dragline buckets, excavators |
Cement | Separator guide vanes, discharge cones for clinker storage bins, chutes for sintering ore conveying, outlet ducts for clinker grinding mills, receiving hoppers |
Dredging | Dredging pipes and pumps, suction pipelines, pump discharges |
Steel | Dredging pipes and pumps, suction pipelines, pump discharges |
Power | Coal handling chutes, coal feeder liners, crusher screen plates, classifier cones, journal liners, silo bunkers |
10. Wear properties of HART-P-100 (ASTM G65 and SGS test report)
*ASTM G65 is a standard test measuring sliding abrasion resistance using a dry sand/rubber wheel apparatus.

11. Service
SERVICE | DESCRIPTION |
Cutting | 1. Can be cut by plasma, laser, water jet, arc gouge, and abrasive saw cutting; |
Welding | 1. Use 480 MPa (70 ksi) or 560 MPa (80 ksi) consumable to join base metal; |
Machining | 1. Not machinable by conventional methods; |
Forming | 1. Commonly formed with overlay to the inside; |
Drilling | 1. When drilling, the distance between two holes should be at least 15mm (5/8''); Otherwise, the partition may not be strong enough and can crack; |
