QuLPA-Fe20 Powder – Laser Cladding Powder Hardfacing 51–55 HRC – Abrasion Resistant, also GFRP
QuLPA-Fe20 is the hard grade among quada's cladding powders: 51–55 HRC as deposited, against approx. 42 HRC for QuLPA-Fe13. Same field of use — slide faces, guideways, sealing edges — but for higher abrasion.
The point the datasheet singles out: good abrasion behaviour with glass-fibre reinforced plastics. That is exactly where moulds wear fastest, because the glass fibres act like abrasive. Higher chromium and vanadium (5.2 % Cr, 0.9 % V) carry the hardness.
Recommended base materials
- 1.2343, 1.2344, 1.2367 — hot-work tool steels
- 1.2311, 1.2312 — plastic mould steels
- 1.2082, 1.2083, 1.2606, 1.2842
- 1.2764, 1.2767
Typical applications
- Moulds for glass-fibre reinforced plastics
- Slide faces, guideways, sealing edges
- Tools with heavy abrasion at elevated operating temperature
- Area cladding by laser metal deposition (LMD)
Properties and advantages
- 51–55 HRC as deposited
- Good abrasion behaviour with GFRP per the datasheet
- Polishable, temperable, nitridable, chrome-platable and CVD-coatable
- Grain size 53–150 µm
Powder form: grain size 53 - 150 µm — for laser metal deposition (LMD).
