XGG overlay plate can be cold formed into curves and conical using plate rolls or press brake.The thickness of the overlay material and type and thickness of the backing plates determine minimum bending radius .

The followings are our recommendations before cold forming:

1、Please contact SXGG regarding bending rules .

2、We recommend to bend XGG wear plate vertical to the welding pass on the overlay. The stress cracks on the overlay side is closed with bending compress. The crack sound can be heard during bending.

        3、Convex shapes with overlay surface out will open the stress cracks. We recommend to use XGG welding materials to fill opened cracks .
