Abstract
Hardfacing is a methodology used to improve surface characteristics for a material, by depositing an alloy layer on base metal to improve the wear resistance. Wear resistance depends upon type of deposition method and alloy. In the present work, a review on hardfacing had been done to study the hardfacing alloys, the properties to be improved by harfacing. Certain methods to apply hardfacing layers and industrial applications were also discussed.
