Dear Sherif
Stellite 31(H)is closer to Metco 45C-NS than Stellite X40 or Amdry X40. All have more all or less the same chemistry, but differ in particle size/distribution. The final choice depends on the specific coating function, economics and any powder/coating/process standards or specifications imposed. It will be important to evaluate any proposed changes before committing to production.
Regards Gordon
