Abstract
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of vanadium and tungsten on wear behavior of Fe-C-Cr based hardfacing alloys. The wear behavior of hardfacing layers was determined by dry sand/rubber wheel abrasion tests according to ASTM G-65. The results of the abrasion tests were interpreted by metallographic examinations, SEM and EDX analyses as well as hardness measurements. According to the results of the experimental studies, the effect of W and V addition was discussed.
