One of the methods to increase the mechanical properties of steel is its hardening via the introduction of a refractory fine-grained phase into a melt. A method of fabrication of a tube blank by centrifugal casting accompanied by hardening with a refractory phase is considered. The introduction of fine tungsten and silicon carbides is shown to improve the structure of grade 15 steel and to increase the wear resistance of a tube blank made of this steel. © 2010 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
