The present disclosure provides a copper-phosphorus-tin brazing wire and a preparation method thereof, relates to the technical field of brazing materials. The copper-phosphorus-tin brazing wire is of a three-layer structure, the inner layer is Cu, the middle layer is Cu-14P alloy, and the outer layer is Sn, wherein the mass percentage of Sn is over 7%. The present disclosure solves the technical problems in the prior art that the copper-phosphorus-silver brazing filler metal is prone to produce defects such as pores and inclusions when brazing copper alloys, which leads to the decline of the mechanical properties of the joint, and simultaneously provides the preparation method of the copper-phosphorus-tin brazing wire, such that the technical problem that it is difficult to obtain copper-phosphorus-tin brazing wire with a wire diameter below 0.5 mm under the condition of high Sn content is solved.

One aspect of the disclosure provides an iron-based hardfacing layer which includes hard or wear resistant phases resulting at least in part from dissolution of silicon and/or boron carbide particles into a liquid iron-based metal during the fabrication process. In an embodiment, the hardfacing layer is formed by a fusion welding process in which carbide particles are added to the molten weld pool. In an example, the filler metal supplied to the welding process is a mild steel. In an embodiment, the hardness as measured at the surface of the hardfacing ranges from 40 to 65 HRC. In an example, the iron-based hardfacing layer also includes tungsten carbide particles.
