the Ogoshi wear testing machine. The abrasive wear rate was
determined from the volume loss as a result of contacting with the
hard revolving disks in the testing machine. Therefore, the test
results were used as a means to provide comparative information
about the relative performance of different treatment of hardfaced
alloys.
Wear loss of hardfacing alloys with different buttering layers
is presented in Fig. 9. The result indicates that the wear loss
decreases as the number of buttering layers increase. The 3
buttering layers hardfaced have the highest wear resistance. The 3
layers ASS buttering reveal lowest wear rate or highest wear
resistance compared with the others. This is possibly due to ASS
buttering layer having good ductility provides high fracture
toughness to the hardfaced steel plates [8,14,15].
The results show that the sample of hardfaced plate with 3
buttering layers has the lowest wear rate, and thus the most
wear-resistant material.

4. Conclusions
(1) Crack susceptibility of hardfaced weld HSLA wear resistant
steel by using MMA process was reduced by applying
preheating and buttering layer in the cross section of the
hardfacing layer and the base metal.
(2) The increase of hardness in multi buttering layers is
expected to be due to the difference in shape and distribution
of hard phase carbides in the austenite matrix.
(3) The lowest wear rate was found in the hardfaced plate with 3
buttering layers of austenitic stainless steel (309L), whereas
the plate gained the optimum hardness was the highest
wear-resistant material.
