Abstract

Abstract A self-bonding flame spray wire capable of forming a readily grindable coating formed of a sheath of aluminum and a compacted powder core containing a major portion of nickel and stainless steel and a minor portion of aluminum and metal oxide. The core may contain from about 10 to 90 percent, and preferably about 61 percent, by weight nickel, about 10 to 90, and preferably 30, percent by weight stainless steel, from 1 to 10 percent by weight, and preferably 5 percent by weight, aluminum, from 1/4 to 10 percent by weight, and preferably 4 percent by weight, of the metal oxide which may, for example, be cobalt oxide or zirconium oxide, and is most preferably zirconium oxide.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 81 words
A self-bonding flame spray wire capable of forming a readily grindable coating, comprising a sheath of aluminum and a compacted powder core containing about 10 to 90% by weight of nickel, about 10 to 90% by weight of stainless steel, about 1 to 10% aluminum, and about 1/4 to 10% metal oxide, based on the total powder compacted core, said stainless steel and metal oxide content being in sufficient quantity and proportions that when sprayed will produce a readily grindable coating.
