With more than 100 years experience in welding and wear protection, Castolin Eutectic is the manufacturer of the widest range of wearplates today on the market in terms of base materials, sizes, coating alloys, and welding processes adopted. From simple Chromium Carbide rich overlays, applied in open arc, to sophisticated NiCrBSi powders additioned with Tungsten Carbides and fused in a vacuum furnace or by means of Plasma Transferred Arc, we have developed a wide choice of products.

CDP® Powder Plates are produced by overlaying an easy-to-weld steel plate with a metal powder alloy fused in a furnace under protected atmosphere. The main advantage of these products is the 100% dilution-free overlay obtained, that ensures maximum protection even with just a few millimetres of deposit thickness. Lightweight and therefore easy to handle. Easily formed, and therefore also suitable to tight bending radius.

They consist of easy-to-weld mild steel tubes which have been internally wearface-welded with TeroMatec 4666 alloy, thus maintaining the exceptional wear resistance of our well known 4666 CastoDur Diamond Plates®. Furthermore, by avoiding expensive forming operations of flat plates into tubes, seamless small diameter CastoTubes® offer many advantages:

• Highly cost-effective
• Absence of harmful linear weld joints
• Exceptional wear resistance
• Perfectly round cross section
• Spiral welding minimises distortion
• Lightweight for handling
• Highest quality metal powder
• Easy-to-join by welding or mechanical means
