    General Product Description

    Duroxite® 300 is an iron-based steel alloy overlay deposited on a mild steel backing plate. It is designed for extremely severe sliding wear for both dry and wet (slurry) abrasive environments. It works well at ambient or elevated temperatures up to 1100°F (600°C). The product is available in single and double layers.

    Duroxite® 300 consists of specially formulated abrasive materials employing a uniform glass-forming melt chemistry that allows high undercooling to be achieved. The overlay contains a unique high volume of ultra-fine tungsten-niobium-molybdenum-rich complex borocarbides with a grain size refined down to 500 nm. The borocarbides are completely wetted in a ductile matrix preventing premature pull-out delamination, crack nucleation and bridging. This results in a product with significantly improved service life that maintains high toughness in severe sliding wear applications. Duroxite® 300 is an excellent alternative to tungsten carbide overlay.

    Key Benefits

    • Extreme wear resistance in dry and wet abrasive environments with a high degree of toughness.
    • Cost effective alternative to tungsten carbide with equivalent service life and better impact resistance.
    • Overlay thickness is reduced compared to traditional overlays resulting in a lighter weight product while increasing service life.
    • Absorbs 25% more impact energy than the traditional chromium overlay plate as measured by the continuous high impact lab test.
    • Has uniform through-thickness hardness of 67 to 70 HRC for single and multiple-layer overlay. Maintains a high hardness of approximately 60 HRC after exposure to high temperatures up to 1100°F (600°C).
    • Maintains a consistent wear resistance from surface down to 75% of the overlay.

                    Microstructure

                    Duroxite® 300 overlay contains an ultra-fine complex borocarbide phase down to approximately 500 nm in a ductile matrix. The typical volume fraction of borocarbides is maintained between 60 to 70% to form a uniform hard matrix. The SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) / EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectrometry) analysis of the Duroxite® 300 overlay confirms that the refined borocarbides are tungsten-niobium-molybdenum-rich borocarbides, and chromium-rich borocarbides dispersed in an iron- based matrix. The ultra-fine borocarbides are approximately 200 times finer than the traditional chromium carbides.

                    Tolerances

                    Thickness

                    Overall and overlay thickness tolerances can be guaranteed within ±10% of specified thickness.

                    Flatness

                    Plate flatness tolerance can be guaranteed within ±3 mm (±1/8”) over 1.5 m (5’) plate length for plate dimensions equal to or less than 1.5 m (5’) x 3.0 m (10’). For plates greater than 1.5 m (5’) wide by 3.0 m (10’) long, the plate flatness tolerance can be guaranteed within ±25 mm (±1”).

                    Delivery Conditions

                    Duroxite® 300 is supplied in an as-welded condition.

                    Fabrication and Other Recommendations

                    Welding, cutting, forming and machining

                    Recommendations can be found in the Duroxite® Products brochure, or consult your local technical support representative.

                    Safety precautions

                    When welding or cutting Duroxite® products, smoke is produced containing harmful fumes and gases that are chemically highly complex and difficult to easily classify. The major toxic component in the fumes and gases produced in the process is hexavalent chromium. The proper exhaust ventilation equipment and fume-extraction torches are recommended, as well as suitable protective clothing and respiratory protection for operators.
