SHS weld overlays are typically built up to a thickness of 1/8” - 1/2”.   SHS thermal spray alloys feature a microstructure with grain sizes refined to a nanoscale (10 - 100 nm). SHS weld overlay alloys feature a microstructure with grain sizes refined to a near-nano sized submicron scale (≤ 400 nm).   The ultra refined microstructure provides a unique combination of high hardness and toughness properties. This combination results in NanoSteel thermal spray coatings and weld overlays with very high bond strength across a range of substrate materials and wear and corrosion resistance that is superior to conventional materials in a wide range of industrial applications.     Super Hard Steel® Alloy Product List   Atomized Powder Atomized powder particles from SHS HVOF 15 - 53 µm size cut.
