Abstract
A composite cylinder for use in injection molding or extrusion operations, wherein a lining having excellent wear resistance and corrosion resistance is applied to the inside of an outer housing by a centrifugal casting process utilizing an alloy having tungsten-carbide particles in a nickel-chromium based alloy matrix. The casting alloy has a composition of up to about 57 weight percent tungsten carbide, with the balance a mixture of nickel and chromium and possibly minor amounts of other elements, but without any significant amount of cobalt. Particularly satisfactory results are obtained from an alloy having a composition by weight of 46-57 percent tungsten carbide, 28-40 percent nickel, 5.1-9.5 percent chromium, 1.5-2.9 percent iron, 1.5-2.9 percent silicon, 1.0-2.3 percent boron and 0.5 percent maximum carbon, the total of constituents being 100%.
