Postle Industries Inc., Cleveland, has released a revised version of its Postalloy DuraHard Super-Edge noncracking hardfacing wire for shredding knives earlier this year. The hardfacing wire resists abrasion and is a gas-shielded, modified high-speed tool steel welding wire designed for applications where edge retention is of concern.
According to Postle Industries, the hardfacing wire helps to create a crack-free fracture-resistant cutting edge even under high compression loads. This material also can be reapplied over itself multiple times without concern for spalling or the need to remove the prior layer. Weld deposits that are martensitic with micro-carbides evenly dispersed throughout the deposit.
In addition, Postle Industries says it’s updated its logo for Postalloy Hardfacing technology in June to give the brand a new look and focus more on the Postalloy terminology. The company offers more details on its product and brand on its website.
