Polymet’s industrial hardfacing and welding wires for the lumber industry have been engineered with one purpose in mind: efficiency. Polymet’s 100% dense, solid PolyStel product line utilizes the proprietary hot extrusion process to produce continuous spools of wire suitable for automated gas tungsten arc welding and plasma welding processes. This spooled PolyStel wire enables the customer to set up and automate the welding process. Welding automation has advantages such as reduced downtime due to switching out rod, diminished excess labor, and minimized waste of the valuable cobalt based consumable. Polymet also manufacturers small diameter PolyStel wire for TIG welding on ultra-thin kerf blades. This results in a more precise weld, eliminating the possibility of excess heat on the blade that causes warping.Welding PolyStel wire onto saw blade applications improves surface finishes and permits significantly longer operational times.
The PolyStel products are cobalt based alloys with a high chromium and tungsten percentage. PolyStel products are available in continuous cast rod (3.2mm and up), extruded rod (0.9mm and up), and extruded spooled wire (0.9mm – 2.0mm). Please see the product offers for this industry below.
