HF 4000
Tungsten carbide inserts (button type). The inserts have been developed to allow cold insertion and maintain close fit. A greater concentration of inserts on the bottom third of the blade and leading edge will increase surface contact to reduce wear in highly abrasive formations.

HF 5000
This oxy-acetylene process applies tough molten carbide particles of varying sizes held in a nickel chrome matrix which provides excellent bonding properties and greater surface wear characteristics are achieved. Surface hardness levels over 40 HRC. Ideal for GEO-THERMAL applications over 350°.

HF 5000
This process is a highly automated way of applying hardface and utilizes a combined arc/plasma stream on the work piece surface. This results a low base metal dilution and a dense, uniform coating, the filling medium can be variety of hardfacing consumables.
