Abstract

See full text

A method of manufacturing coated components, e.g., for use in downhole drilling, which may limit, during the manufacturing process, the formation of microfissures and other performance-inhibiting characteristics in the abrasion resistant coating. The method may include applying an abrasion resistant coating composition to a substrate. The abrasion resistant coating composition and at least the surface of the substrate may be heated to effect metallurgical bonding of the abrasion resistant coating composition with the substrate. The substrate may then be austempered under process conditions selected to limit the volume of expansion of the substrate during austempering to less than about 0.8%.
