SLS600® WEARPIPE
SLS600 WEARPIPE is achieved by a unique heating/quenching process that alters the steel’s microstructure through the pipe wall.
• The structure of the inner surface becomes very hard, typically 600 BHN
• The microstructure of the outer surface, cooling slower, remains more ductile, having a hardness of 250 BHN
In the hardening process the raw pipe, a medium carbon-low alloy steel, is heated to a fully austenitic temperature of approximately 1550º F. The inside diameter is then rapidly quenched with a treated coolant thus producing different microstructures and BHN hardness throughout the wall thickness. Induction hardening leaves a hard abrasion resistant inner surface so as to withstand flow deterioration and a ductile outer surface to accommodate handling and welding.
Ultra-Met® Overlay Lined Pipe
Ultra-Met pipe is recommended for severe sliding abrasion applications. The result is a surface
possessing an excellent combination of high resistance to erosion, severe abrasion and
moderate impact strength.
Ultra-Met overlay can be applied to spool sections, pipe bends and fabricated fittings. Wire alloy is deposited upon the carbon steel inner pipe bore. For straight sections or bends, the entire inner surface is welded in one or two layers.
Overlayed bends and fittings can be used in conjunction with induction hardened pipe within
the total system to afford the additional abrasion resistance needed in areas of extreme turbulence
and wear.
SLS® Cast Lined Pipe
Chrome carbide overlay insert lined pipe and elbows are designed for long life in high abrasion piping systems. Applications include pneumatic and hydraulic piping systems for extremely abrasive materials such as foundry sand, lime/ash injection, glass transport, and mine backfill.
Chrome carbide insert components are ideal for improving system performance and
life– upgrading, renovations, or component replacement.
