F. W. Winter, Inc. & Co. manufactures a variety of
special alloys in different size distributions for a wide range of applications.
Lump special alloys are used in a variety of melting
applications throughout the steel and related metals industries. Coarse powders, 14 mesh x
D, are used to manufacture injection wires for trim alloying additions to steel melts.
The 20 mesh x D powders are typically used in hard facing
applications as alloying ingredients for overlays on steel structures for wear resistance
applications.
Powders 40 mesh x D and finer are normally used in the
manufacture of welding electrodes, both stick electrodes and flux-cored wires.
The fine powders are primarily used for powder metallurgy
applications.
