Stellite™ 12 Alloy
Stellite™ 12 could be considered an intermediate alloy between Stellite™ 6 and Stellite™ 1. It contains a higher fraction of hard, brittle carbides than Stellite™ 6, and has increased resistance to lowangle erosion, abrasion, and severe sliding wear whilst retaining reasonable impact and cavitation resistance. Stellite™ 12 is often used self-mated or running against Stellite™ 6 or Stellite™ 1. The higher tungsten content provides better high-temperature properties compared to Stellite™ 6, and it can be used at temperatures up to about 700°C.
Stellite™ 12 is typically used for cutting tools that need to withstand abrasion, heat and corrosion. Examples include industrial knives for cutting carpets, plastics, paper and synthetic fibres; and saw tips in the timber industry. It is also used for control plates in the beverage industry, pump vanes, bearing bushes and narrowneck glass mold plungers; and for hardfacing of engine valves, pinch rollers in the metal-processing industries, and rotor blade edges.
