Postalloy® 2821-MCO Sugar Mill Roll Arcing Roughening Wire

Postalloy® 2821-MCO is a chromium carbide hardface alloy that produces a "Spatter Weld" (Chapisco), from small to large to enhance the gripping action. This versatility can meet the needs of all desired sugar mill roll rough surface requirements for pulling the cane during processing. It is easily applied during production or in shop roll maintenance. An ideal alloy for applications involving high abrasion and moderate impact.
