TRUER SPHERE - Nichrome Powder - NiCr powder

Nichrome is a silver gray metallic powder and well-known NiCr powder with 80% Nickel and 20% Chromium. NiCr powder, including 80/20, 70/30, 60/40, 50/50, is a hardfacing alloy that is used to help withstand high levels of corrosion, wear, or heat. Drill rods, shafts, tubes, couplings, cutter bars, augers, cylinders and related components are especially vulnerable to the effects of wear and corrosion, and must be treated specially to maximize life. 

Our common production process for NiCr powder includes Gas Atomizing process (GA) & Plasma Rotating Electrode Process (PREP) with high spherical, high purity, high packing density, low porosity and excellent flowing properties which match the needs of 3D printing, hardfacing and coating.

The particle size can be customized by customer’s needs, our common PSD 15-45um, 15-53um and 45-150um.
