Hardbanding, as a method for protecting drill pipe tool joints from premature abrasive wear, has been in wide spread use since the late 1930’s. Tungsten Carbide has traditionally been embedded into the overlay to further extend tool joint wear life. In open-hole conditions where casing wear is not a concern, Tungsten Carbide embedded in a tough, wear resistant matrix still provides the maximum wear resistance for tool joints.
DYNALLOY INDUSTRIES’
CRUSHED TUNGSTEN CARBIDE
Dynalloy Industries’ Crushed Tungsten Carbide is screened to meet a variety of different specifications and sizing requirements. The most common use for crushed Tungsten Carbide is hardfacing applications on components such as mining teeth, hammer mill blades, and tub grinder tips. Additional applications include components for grinding, shredding, sawing, gripping, and mixing.
