• The chromium in high-chrome white iron reduces the cooling rate required to produce carbides throughout the material, allowing massive castings to be manufactured with carbides throughout their section thickness during the normal solidification encountered in the casting process.
• Excellent for use in the transport of abrasive mediums

To achieve the best abrasion resistance for your application, it is important to work closely with MACA personnel. The abrasive environment of your application, coupled with the microstructure of chrome white iron, can result in drastic differences in the service life of your part. The design assistance phase must focus on determining which areas of application will sustain the greatest wear and how to ensure the highest quality casting is produced. Chemistry is carefully engineered to provide the best size and shape of carbides. The heat treatment is the final step in the manufacturing process, and it ensures that the microstructure is correct for your application. The heat treatment should be designed based on the chemistry of the part, its section thickness, and its desired properties.
