Abstract
The price of cobalt has risen dramatically in the last few years, and supply has often been uncertain. The most popular hardfacing alloys contain substantial amounts of cobalt, and have thus been especially affected by these factors. The present study has developed a new hardfacing alloy, HAYNES Alloy No. 716, with lower cobalt content, to replace the most popular alloy, HAYNES STELLITE Alloy No. 6 which is cobalt based. The alloy design which led to the development of the new alloy is discussed, and properties are compared with Alloy No. 6. Hardness at room temperature and elevated temperatures, weldability, and corrosion and abrasion resistance of the new alloy compare favorably with Alloy No. 6.
