SYNCO WC?Co Thermal Spray Powders
Superior Wear Resistance for Severe Abrasion & Erosion
SYNCO WC?Co (Tungsten Carbide?Cobalt) thermal spray powders?are high-performance carbide powders engineered for?HVOF, HVAF, plasma spray, and selected flame spray applications. These powders are designed to deliver?exceptional abrasion resistance, erosion resistance, and hardness, making them the preferred choice for components exposed to extreme mechanical wear.
WC?Co coatings are widely used where?wear dominates over corrosion, and maximum hardness and durability are required.
Why WC?Co?
- Extremely high?hardness and wear resistance
- Excellent?sliding and abrasive wear performance
- Dense coatings with strong?mechanical bonding
- Ideal for dry, high-wear service conditions
Standard WC?Co Compositions (wt.%)
| Grade | WC (%) | Co (%) | Typical Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| WC?6Co | Balance | ~6 | Very high hardness, excellent abrasion resistance |
| WC?10Co | Balance | ~10 | Balanced hardness and toughness |
| WC?12Co | Balance | ~12 | Higher toughness, improved impact resistance |
| WC?15Co | Balance | ~15 | For heavy impact with severe wear |
Note:?Higher cobalt increases toughness; lower cobalt maximizes hardness.
Available Particle Size / Mesh Range
SYNCO WC?Co powders are supplied in?controlled particle size distributions?to suit different spray processes:
- ?45 +15 ?m?? Standard HVOF / HVAF applications
- ?38 +11 ?m?? Fine coatings & smoother surface finish
- ?53 +20 ?m?? Thick, heavy-duty wear coatings
- Custom mesh cuts available on request
Powders are available as?Agglomerated & Sintered (A&S)?or?Crushed & Sintered, depending on coating density and finish requirements.
Compatible Spray Processes
- HVOF / HVAF?? Preferred for dense, low-porosity WC?Co coatings
- Plasma Spray?? For build-up and refurbishment applications
- Flame Spray (limited cases)?? Light to medium wear duties
Typical Coating Properties
- Hardness:?? 1000?1400 HV?(process dependent)
- Very low porosity with HVOF/HVAF
- Excellent resistance to?abrasion, erosion & fretting
