ID-Clad Tubes

Wear Resistant Pipes

Premium id-clad internally hardfaced abrasion resistant tubes with carbide-rich wear layer (>800 hv hardness). customized internal cladding for extreme protection in pneumatic conveying systems across power plants, mining, cement, and steel industries.

ID-Clad Internally Hardfaced Abrasion Resistant Tubes

Ultimate Wear Protection with Customized Carbide-Rich Internal Cladding

ID-Clad tubes feature seamless internal hardfacing using advanced carbide-containing cored wire, delivering extreme abrasion resistance (>800 HV / 65 HRC) with finely dispersed carbides in a tough matrix. Precision radial welding ensures minimal distortion and perfect circularity—ideal for pneumatic conveying of abrasive materials like fly ash, coal, ores, and cement in high-wear industries.

Benefits of Hardfacing

Extended Component Life

Hardfacing significantly improves resistance to abrasion and surface wear, extending the service life of metal components by up to 300%.

Reduced Downtime

Ideal for mining, agriculture, and remote operations, hardfacing keeps equipment running while replacement parts are being manufactured or shipped.

Lower Operating Costs

By minimizing part replacement and reducing spare inventory, hardfacing can cut total replacement costs by 25%–75% over time.

Key Features & Benefits

ID-Clad tubes, known as internally hardfaced tubes or carbide clad tubes, provide unmatched protection against abrasive wear through advanced internal hardfacing with special carbide-containing cored wires. The customized alloy matrix with finely dispersed carbides achieves hardness exceeding 800 HV (65 HRC), offering superior resistance to erosion from high-velocity particles. Manufactured via precision radial internal welding for uniform cladding (3-5mm thick) and minimal shrinkage, these abrasion resistant clad tubes maintain perfect geometry even in diameters from 50mm upward and lengths up to 3000mm. Lightweight yet robust, with strong metallurgical bonding on unalloyed or alloyed base materials, ID-Clad internally clad tubes dramatically extend service life, reduce replacement frequency, simplify assembly with compatible consumables, and lower total costs in severe wear environments. Long-tail advantages include tailored alloy selection for specific media/temperatures, excellent performance in ASTM G65 wear tests, and reliable operation with loose/fixed flange connections.

HARD FACING

Industry focus

Hardfacing is widely used in applications where components are exposed to continuous impact, abrasion, or erosion. By reinforcing the working surface, it helps equipment maintain strength, dimensions, and performance over extended service periods.
