The paper presents the results of examinations of the structure and properties of duplex layers of the CrC+(Co-W) type; Produced in a vacuum chromizing process on a tool steel surface covered with Co-W electrolytic alloy. A comparison of the CrC+(Co-W) type duplex layers with the CrC type single carbide layers, produced in vacuum chromizing process, were performed. Studies of layers thickness, their hardness, structure, and concentration depth profiles of elements in the diffusion zone of these layers were carried out. Tribological properties of the layers and corrosion resistance were determined It has been proven that the wear resistance by friction of the CrC+(Co-W) type duplex layers, produced by means vacuum chromizing of tool steel covered with Co-W alloy electrolytic coating, is as good as single carbide layers of the CrC type, but their corrosion resistance is higher.
