Hardfacing Wires & Rods

Proven Hardfacing Protection

Colmonoy^® rods and wires are trusted across industries for both new-build protection and spot repairs, from extrusion screws, pump shafts, and camshafts to agricultural tools, hammers, blades, and other high-wear components.

Applied using the techniques of OFW (Oxy-fuel Welding), GMAW (MIG) for wires, and GTAW (TIG) for rods, Colmonoy^® forms metallurgically bonded weld overlays that deliver wear and corrosion resistance – reducing costly downtime and keeping equipment in operation longer.

Industries

Glass Container

Our advanced hardsurfacing alloys protect glass molds, plungers, and wear parts from extreme heat and abrasion, extending tool life and ensuring smooth bottle and jar production.

Oil & Gas

Drilling tools, pumps, and valve components in oil and gas operations benefit from our hardfacing alloys, which provide exceptional resistance to corrosion, pressure, and abrasive wear.

Pumps & Valves

From high-pressure chemical pumps to industrial flow valves, our advanced hardfacing alloys increase durability and prevent erosion in demanding fluid-handling applications.

Mining

Heavy-duty mining equipment - such as crushers, drill bits, and conveyor components - lasts longer with our wear-resistant alloys that combat impact, abrasion, and harsh conditions.

Rubber & Plastics

Our products protect extruder screws, molds, and processing dies in rubber and plastics manufacturing, minimizing friction-related wear and improving production efficiency.

Power Generation

Turbine blades, boiler components, and energy infrastructure benefit from our high-temperature resistant alloys, reducing oxidation, fatigue, and operational downtime.

Steel

From rolling mill guides to cutting tools, our hardfacing products help steel manufacturing equipment withstand extreme heat, pressure, and mechanical wear.

Automotive

Brake discs, engine components, and powertrain parts coated with our powders achieve superior wear resistance, improving performance and longevity in high-friction environments.

Agriculture

Our alloys extend the life of plowshares, harvester blades, and industrial mixers by protecting against abrasive soil, moisture, and heavy mechanical stress.

Products for Hardfacing Wire & Rod Applications

Wall Colmonoy’s cored wires – including Colmonoy® 56, 88, 4001-50 – offer high wear resistance and minimal dilution for clean, efficient surfacing. Our bare rods are available as sintered or continuous cast in a range of diameters, suitable for both TIG welding and flame application, delivering excellent deposit efficiency and ease of use – heating only the part being coated and no equipment needed.
