Wear caused by the interaction between abrasive particles and pipeline components has been effectively minimized in the past by the choice of various hard matrix alloys. Typical of such alloys are HC-250 and the various grades of Ni-Hards falling under ASTM A532 classification. The high chromium martensitic white irons have generally shown good performance in the handling of abrasive slurries such as encountered in mining, dredging and waste treatment plants.
