Abstract

In this study, the effects of dilution on the wear behavior of PTAW (Plasma Transferred Arc Welding) Inconel 625, Inconel 718 and Stellite 6 overlays on Nimonic 80A were investigated. Inorder to evaluate the wear performance, two-body and three-body abrasive wear test, and dry sliding wear test were performed. According to wear tests, the wear rate of deposit with dilution 30% was higher than that of dilution 10% by 10%, and it was also found the plastic deformation near worn surface.
