The Postle Industries team had a great time at FABTECH 2026 in Las Vegas! 🎰

We enjoyed walking the show, checking out the latest equipment and technology, and connecting with people across the industry.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to talk with us. We look forward to staying in touch!

The wear problem is only half the equation. Can the wire handle how—and where—you need to weld?

This customer needed out-of-position welding performance and resistance to heavy impact. Postalloy® 2898-FCG fit the application, while weld-on wear plates provided fast, efficient protection for the bucket sides.

A worn edge doesn’t have to mean a new knife.

Hardfacing can give worn wood chipper knives another round of service by rebuilding the cutting profile and improving wear resistance.

Postalloy® Super-Edge and Ultra-Shred 580 are two options for the job. Choosing the right alloy starts with understanding your knife material and operating conditions.

Before you replace your knives, let’s talk about rebuilding them. Contact our team: (216) 265-9000 | [email protected]

Postalloy is officially launching a new YouTube channel.

https://www.youtube.com/

We’re building this channel to be more than just a place for product videos. Going forward, we’ll be sharing real-world hardfacing knowledge, applications, and training designed to help people better understand wear and how to solve it.

Look for upcoming content including field application videos and photos, Hardfacing 101 training, product demonstrations, automation, troubleshooting, wear solutions, and technical tips from the field.

If you work around abrasion, impact, erosion, metal-to-metal wear, or hardfacing applications, this is a channel worth following.

Please subscribe to the new Postalloy YouTube channel and follow along as we continue to build it out.

More to come soon.

100,000 pounds of hardfaced protection. 💪

This massive trenching machine was hardfaced with Postalloy® 2832-MCO and Postalloy® 214HD to help protect critical wear areas under demanding operating conditions.

When equipment this powerful faces serious wear, the right hardfacing solution makes all the difference.

Control the Carbide / Control the Deposit / Control the Cost

For decades, MIG carbide feeders have relied on essentially the same basic design — a vibratory hopper feeding tungsten carbide into the weld puddle.

We believed there was a better way.

Postalloy is preparing to introduce an all-new TungGuard™ Precision Carbide Feeder built around precision rotary metering technology.

Designed to provide greater control and consistency over carbide delivery, TungGuard represents a completely different approach to managing one of the most expensive parts of a carbide hardfacing deposit.

With tungsten costs where they are today, precision matters.

Coming Soon.

Protecting asphalt milling equipment where wear hits hardest.

This machine uses carbide teeth to grind and remove asphalt from highway surfaces, creating severe abrasion around the cutting components.

Postalloy® 2898-FCG is applied to these high-wear areas, with excellent out-of-position welding capabilities that make it ideal for hard-to-reach surfaces. The machine’s two slide shoes are also protected with Postalloy® CR-33 chromium carbide wear plate for added abrasion resistance.

The hardfaced and untreated sides show the difference targeted wear protection can make.

Not all cracks are defects.

In high-hardness overlays, check cracking is a normal and expected stress-relief mechanism. These small cracks typically form perpendicular to the weld bead as it cools, helping release internal stress caused by shrinkage.

However, cross cracking or cracks extending into the base metal may indicate improper welding procedures, incompatible materials or excessive stress.

Understanding the difference is essential for achieving a successful, long-lasting hardfacing application.

Nearly five years later — and still going strong.

This dropbox takes the impact of coal falling approximately 15 feet. Before switching to Postalloy® CR-33 wear plate, the steel was being replaced about every eight months, and weld failures were a recurring problem.

The CR-33 plate was installed using Postalloy® 301 nearly five years ago, and the welds are still holding while the wear plate continues to perform exceptionally well.

A major maintenance headache turned into a long-term wear solution.
