Oerlikon Metcos CoCr[NiWSi]C products are inert gas atomized powders that are chemically homogeneous, exhibit minimal satellites and are freely flowing. They are designed and provide excellent results for a variety of applications such as laster cladding, thermal spray and PTA. These materials form coatings that are appropriate for wear and corrosion resistance in relatively high-temperature service conditions. Amdry X40, Metco 45C-NS and Metco 45VF-NS are similar in chemistry to Stellite 31 (Stellite X40) and are designed to be applied using atmospheric plasma spray. They are recommended for salvage and buildup applications. The coatings are useful in gas turbine engines at high temperatures up to 850 C (1550 F), and for metal working components which require a combination of mechanical integrity and hot wear resistance. Metco 45VF-NS is intended to be used for thin coatings, up to a maximum thickness of 0.4 mm (0.015 in). The coatings produced are smoother and harder than coatings produced using Metco 45C-NS and Amdry X40.""
