Stoody Vancar E is a coated fabricated electrode that contains specially formulated vanadium tungsten carbide particles approximately equal to tungsten carbide in hardness but at only half the density. Vancar has an advantage over tungsten carbide because it can be applied in multiple layers and still retain its original hardness due to uniform distribution of the carbide particles. This provides wear rates that remain uniform throughout the life of the deposit.
An Extensive Family of Repair & Maintenance Products
Today, Stoody is the leader in hardfacing technology and high alloy filler metals. We formulate products that maximize uptime, extend life cycle, and reduce operating costs. The extensive family of Stoody products includes iron, nickel, cobalt, tungsten, chromium, niobium, titanium, and vanadium bearing alloys, as well as a full line of high alloy joining and cladding wires and electrodes.
100 Years of Innovations in Hardfacing
Over 100 years ago, Shelley Stoody and Elder Rice founded Stoody-Rice Welding Co., helping create a whole new industry – Hardfacing . What started with drill bits during the oil boom of the 1920s continued to build through a long history of industry advancements. Stoody's hardfacing innovations continue to shape the industry today.
