WEAR-TUFF Abrasion Resistant Coating

The WEAR-TUFF process permits Lund to coat metal parts with a low cost, mass produced, smooth wear coating that is particularly effective at resisting abrasion. The material consists of alloy powders, carbides, and fluxes. By varying the amount of viscosity control agents,  WEAR-TUFF can be applied either as a slurry or sprayed on.  The coated parts are dried and then sintered in a controlled atmosphere furnace. This fuses the material to the substrate with a true metallic bond. If desired, the parts can then be heat treated to the desired mechanical properties.

WEAR-TUFF can be applied at virtually any thickness. However, the optimal range for ground engaging applications is 0.025 to 0.040 in. Hardness typically is in the range of 60 to 65 Rockwell C.

WEAR-TUFF can be applied to steel, iron or other metal substrates.
