The effect of thermal cycling between 473 and 823 K on the residual stress distribution of a nickel-base hardfacing alloy deposited on an austenitic stainless steel sleeve was studied in the as-deposited and stress relieved conditions. Thermal cycling was found to "affect the peak value and gradient in compressive residual stresses across the hardface deposits. Stress relieving heat treatment was found to have a marginal effect on the residual stress distribution across the deposit subjected to thermal cycling.
