What is weld overlay?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Weld overlay<\/span><\/em>, also known as weld overlay cladding<\/em> or simply cladding<\/em> is the process of applying a corrosive resistant or wear resistant material onto the base material. <\/span><\/p>\n

The base material is usually a basic grade of carbon steel, that is coated with a higher-grade stainless steel, acid proof steel or high-grade nickel alloys. <\/span><\/p>\n

What are the benefits of weld overlay?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

The benefits of weld overlay are increased chemical durability and cost-efficiency, especially in high pressure applications. <\/span><\/p>\n

With the use of weld overlay it is possible to combine the best qualities of base material (pressure caring body) and coating material. Weld overlay provides a surface protection whereas the base material provides strength requirements to meet codes and standards.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>How we use weld overlay at West Welding?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

West Welding has a history of doing weld overlay<\/span><\/strong> with various materials, including different heat resistant stainless steel, acid proof steels and nickel alloys <\/strong>like Inconel 625<\/em>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Usually, we have used weld overlay on insides of entire pressure vessels, including nozzles. For pressure vessels, the base materials we use are for example P355NL2, P335GH, 16Mo3 <\/em>and 10CrMo9-10<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em> <\/span><\/p>\n
