Founded in 1990, EUWELD® is the global specialist in alloyed cored welding wires. Each of our DRILL-SHIELD hardbanding wires is specifically formulated and produced in-house utilizing our own manufacturing technology and from extensive Oil & Gas industry knowledge.

 

DRILL-SHIELD®  the ultimate protection for your drill string and casing.

 

DRILL-SHIELD Non Mag sets the standard in joint protection for non-magnetic drill collars and tools. The ultra-low magnetism and permeability of the hardband exceeds the requirements set forth by the API. It is formulated for both buildup and / or hardbanding. During hardbanding it is recommended to use a non-magnetic tungsten carbide drop for ultimate protection.

It is designed for the protection of standard austenitic stainless steels, chromium-manganese, and nitrogen-bearing austenitic stainless steels. It may be applied over defect free laser clad, PTA (plasma transferred arc), or other traditional non magnetic hardbanding wires.
