This detonation process for applying tungsten carbidecobalt
coating provides a hard, wear-resistant surface on metal parts which
do not operate at temperatures higher than 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit(OF)
C538 degrees Celsius(5380C)l. The coating is not recommended for surfaces
with deep v-shaped grooves, blind cavities, narrow holes, sharp corners, or
where deformation of the base metal is expected.
