Flux-cored wire for hardfacing is a popular welding consumable used in various industries, including mining, construction, and manufacturing. This wire is designed to provide high-quality welding results by depositing a wear-resistant layer on the surface of the metal.

Some people have the idea that hardfacing is a complicated business, intended only for a small elite of welding pros.

Deciding which welding process to use can be challenging. Learn the basics of solid and flux-cored wire - and how to maximize the benefits of each.

Wear-resistant steel plates, also named abrasion-resistant plates (AR Plates), are used to reduce wear and tear on equipment surface caused by intense rolling abrasion and impact.

Wear Plates are seen as one of the most important things that manufacturing and industrial companies need. If you own one, then you might have already considered using wear plates; but what are they actually for?

The three major failure modes of wear plate materials are: wear, fracture, and corrosion. And the failure mode of wear-resistant castings is wear, fracture, deformation and other major failure modes.
