Stellite 6

Material overview

The Cobalt-Based Alloys catalog describes Stellite 6 as follows: The most widely used cobalt alloy, balancing wear, corrosion and impact resistance. Reviewers should evaluate All-purpose hardfacing alloy, good abrasion, corrosion and heat resistance, and tolerates moderate impact. The grade record lists Valve seats and gates, pump shafts and sleeves, screw conveyors, hot-working dies, and engine valves among typical applications. The dataset currently includes 12 property records covering chemical composition, mechanical properties, and physical properties. Standards and form records reference A5.21 and A5.13 and Bar / Rod, Cast Product, and Solid Wire / GTAW-GMAW Wire. Final supply conditions remain subject to specification, inspection, and export-control review.
