CO5738 Tribaloy T-400 Alloy Powder

Tribaloy T-400 Alloy Powder Description

Tribaloy T-400 Alloy Powder is a cobalt-based alloy known for its excellent wear and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments. Tribaloy T-400 typically contains Cobalt, Chromium, Molybdenum, and Silicon. The Chromium provides corrosion resistance, while the Molybdenum enhances wear resistance and the ability to withstand high temperatures.

The T-400 alloy is characterised by its ability to form hard intermetallic phases that enhance wear resistance. It retains good mechanical strength and corrosion resistance even at elevated temperatures.
