Shur-Clad composite rolls consist of
SinterMet’s
next generation high wear-resistant SVCR-9 powder metallurgy tool
steel surface bonded to a high strength, corrosion-resistant
alloy steel shaft.
Shur-Clad is specially heat-treated to exact specifications to
ensure optimum toughness, outperforming cast iron by a factor
of four to six
times.
Unlike the conventional cast process, Shur-Clad’s
unique powder metallurgy process makes it possible to manufacture
steel with very
high alloy content. This process eliminates alloy element (carbide)
segregation by rapidly solidifying powder particles of uniform
chemistry. Additionally, advanced hot isostatic pressing at
high pressures makes
it possible for solid densification to eliminate non-uniform precipitation
or massive growth of alloy carbides.
Shur-Clad’s next generation SVCR-9 is superior to conventional
steels because of its high alloyed composition, small (1-3 µm)
and uniformly distributed carbides such as VC (Vanadium Carbide)
and fine grain size of the matrix. Shur-Clad can withstand minimum
speeds of 3-5m/sec and has no maximum speed threshold.
Suited for intermediate stands of wire rod mills and intermediate and
finishing stands for bar mills, Shur-Clad is applicable to the production
of a variety of bar and rod shapes and sizes.
Along with our proven technical support, competitive
price and unmatched delivery, SinterMet’s unique migration path
can take you from your existing cast iron to the high-performance
Shur-Clad and ultimately
to the optimum Shur-Lock composite rolls. This progression of
engineered solutions can evolve with your mill, fit your specific
applications
and provide high value regard-less of application.
