A weld nut is a type of nut that is specially designed to be welded to another workpiece. Different types of weld nuts are used for different purposes.... Most weld nuts are made from stainless steel or low carbon steel. In the case weld nuts are made from low carbon steels, zinc plating may be used to impart a high degree of resistance to corrosion.

  • Welding and Soldering (Metals)
CONT

Surfacing is a term used to describe processes of depositing metal on surfaces of tools and machine parts in order to increase their dimensional sizes or to obtain some specific mechanical property.... The two main categories of surfacing are known as hardfacing and metallizing. Hardfacing is a fusion technique and includes processes which are designed to produce hard, tough overlays to resist severe abrasion, corrosion, and impact loads. Metallizing is a spray coating procedure where finely divided particles of metal are deposited on surfaces where metal has worn away or where it is necessary to build up certain contours. Hardfacing is actually a fusion weld process in which a special hardfacing rod, wire, or electrode is intermixed with the base metal.

Key term(s)

Domaine(s)
  • Soudage (Métal)
DEF

Opération consistant à recouvrir la surface d'une pièce métallique, d'une couche plus ou moins épaisse d'un autre métal ou alliage fondu (rechargement hétérogène), pour augmenter localement la résistance à l'usure, ou pour apporter du métal semblable (rechargement homogène) sur des parties usées ou corrodées.

CONT

Technologie du rechargement. (...) L'opération consiste essentiellement à rapporter, par fusion, sur les parties usées ou susceptibles de s'user, un métal de même nature ou, le plus souvent, de nature différente de celle du métal de base.
