Which of the welding processes is very popular for hardfacing because of its low equipment cost, versatility and general ease of application
SMAW
Which method of hardfacing is the slowest process
GTAW
What is a disadvantage of the FCAW surfacing process as compared to GMAW surfacing
slag inclusions may need to be removed
What is an advantage of the MCAW surfacing process compared to GMAW surfacing
little to no slag
Which arc welding surfacing method uses high currents and high deposition rates, leaves no spatter and emits no harmful uv radiation
SAW
What is true about the oxyfuel gas hard surfacing process
it has low metal dilution
A sliding/scaping type of wear that removes metal by gouging or grinding is called
abrasion
A gouging type of wear that washes away or groves out the metal surface is called
erosion
A seizing or galling type of wear that rips and tears out portions of metal surface is called
metal to metal
A squeezing type of wear usually caused by the imposition of a heavy static load on the surface of a metal is called
compression
Which hardfacing material can be ferrous or non ferrous
chromium carbide
These hardfacing materials alloyed with 5%-12% chromium are probably the most widely used
semi austenitic
These hardfacing materials which are workhardened are well suited for impact loading
austenitic manganese
For best results the deposits the deposits with these materials should be more or two layers thick
martensitic stainless steel
Which material results in a deposit that is hard if cooled quickly or soft and tough if cooled slowly
heat treatable steels
Which hardfacing material is used for sliding metal-to-metal contact and for corrosion resistance applications
copper alloys
Which term describes the breaking away of the weld metal from the base metal
spalling
What is one method you could use to avoid stress failure when hardfacing a part hardened by heat treatment
avoid interruptions during welding
