On 20210804, I received an inquiry from a US friend on Google. American friends are looking for 1 inch valve balls. In the exchange, I recommended the valve ball made of satellite 20 to him. The customer purchased 300 satellite 20 1 inch balls.
1. Material of cobalt-based alloy
First, let me introduce you to the cobalt-based alloy. Cobalt-based alloy is a wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant and high-temperature resistant material. Usually, we also call them cobalt chromium tungsten or Stellite. Let me show you the chemical composition and hardness of Stellite 20.
Composition (% ) | C | Si | Mn | Cr | Ni | S | P | Mo | W | Fe | Co | Hardness |
Stellite 20 | 2.30- 2.65 | ≤ 1.0 | ≤ 1.0 | 31.0- 34.0 | ≤ 2.5 | ≤ 0.04 | ≤ 0.04 | ≤1.0 | 16.0- 18.0 | ≤ 2.5 | Bal. | HRC:52- 60 |
2. Introduce some properties of Stellite (cobalt-based) alloy:
①. It has high strength, good thermal fatigue resistance, thermal corrosion resistance and wear resistance, and has good weldability.
②. The thermal stability of carbide in cobalt-based alloy is good.
③. Cobalt-based alloy has good heat resistance and corrosion resistance.
