QuLPA-Fe13 Powder – Laser Cladding Powder Tool Steel 1.2343 / 1.2344 – 42 HRC, Wear Resistant
QuLPA-Fe13 Powder – Laser Cladding Powder Tool Steel 1.2343 / 1.2344 – 42 HRC, Wear Resistant
QuLPA-Fe13 is the laser cladding powder for highly wear-resistant build-ups on tools exposed to heavy abrasion and pressure with moderate impact loading and elevated operating temperatures — per the datasheet typically slide faces, guideways and sealing edges.
It is a wear layer, not a matching repair material: it is deposited on the hot-work and plastic mould steels 1.2343 / 1.2344 / 1.2311 / 1.2312 / 1.2083 and similar. Approx. 42 HRC (40–44 HRC as deposited). Where more hardness is needed, QuLPA-Fe20 (51–55 HRC) is the next step.
Recommended base materials
