Tolerates higher temperatures

The working of hot metal puts severe demands on the tools used. They must resist softening at elevated temperatures, or resist thermal fatigue caused by repeated heating-and-cooling cycles. They must defy deformation caused by heavy loads at extreme temperatures.

Grades of Ferro-Tic have been developed to provide excellent wear resistance even under these extremely adverse conditions.

With Ferro-Tic Grades, resistance to wear or galling need not to be sacrificed in order to obtain outstanding corrosion or oxidation resistance.

Surface exposure of superhard titanium carbide micrograins increases resistance to wear while maintaining extraordinary lubricity.

A variety of alloy matrices is available to resist attack by hostile, corrosive elements. This chemical resistance, reinforced by the mechanical protection of Ferro-Tic's smooth, rounded titanium carbide micrograins, protects the matrix from erosion.
