Welding Alloys has a wealth of expertise in developing welding consumables specially designed to protect against wear from abrasion, erosion, corrosion, impact, thermal fatigue, metal to metal friction and more. Preheating before welding is crucial, as it softens the heat-affected zone, mitigates post-welding stress, aids hydrogen degassing, and improves the bond between the base and weld materials. This process results in a stronger, more reliable and durable bond. Explore our range of solutions designed to optimise welding operations.

For more information on preheating, relief checking, welding processes, consumable selection, and hardness, please see our Fundamentals of Hardfacing by Arc Welding booklet.
