Cobalt #1 is designed for applications that require extreme abrasion resistance at elevated temperatures, but where impact resistance is not a consideration. Cobalt #1 has a higher carbon and tungsten content than other cobalt alloys causing the weld deposit to have a higher volume of carbides within its microstructure. Although the weld deposits of Cobalt #1 are not as “tough” as those of Cobalt #6, they are much harder and have excellent resistance to solid particle erosion.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Seals, rotors, steam turbine parts, mixer blades, extrusion dies, saw blades, rolling mill guides, pump impellers, carbon scrapers. engine crossheads. hydropulper disc parts.
