CastoTube - Semi-finished, anti-wear solutions for pipe. CastoTubes are seamless, easy to weld, mild steel, tubes which have been internally wearfaced with wear resistant alloys. By avoiding expensive forming operations of flat plates into tubes, CastoTubes offer many advantages:
Due to the speed and change of flow direction inside an elbow, wear rate can increase dramatically in some areas. Usually, the first segments are subjected to more harsh conditions and face premature wear, while the rest of the elbow remains in good condition. In order to create uniform wear all along the tube, Eutectic installs hybrid elbows to solve this problem. The first part is made with NanoAlloy® CastoTube® while the remaining part is made with 4666 CastoTube®. This solution gives the ideal mix of wear resistance properties - “the right wear resistance in the right place”. Maintenance is also made easier and more cost-effective by allowing the replacement of only the worn segments.

NanoAlloy CastoTube
The Eutectic Difference CastoTube alloys are engineered for exceptional wear resistance resulting in: Ultra-hard phases anchored in a tough matrix - Hardness is typically 2-3 times higher than the most abrasive media used in industrial processes. Uniform hardness and exceptional wear properties throughout coating - Controlled cooling during CastoTube manufacturing means a coating with a dense homogenous structure. This structure prevents premature “washing out” of the hard phases from the “softer” matrix by wear mechanisms. Conventional, randomly solidified alloys tend to wear out much faster due to the early loss of hard particles from their matrix before contributing to wear resistance.
4666 CastoTube
Hybrid CastoTube Elbow Controlled cooling during the manufacturing process produces densely dispersed hard phases. These are strongly oriented to provide superior wear resistance when compared to conventional weld coatings.
