At present, the industrial sector requires the recovery of tool steel componentssubjected to severe wear which are built with steel HWS these have the sameproperties in all tribology directions and have great success in buildingtooling. In this paper, we recover the previously HWS steel machining with afillet of 2mm caused by the metallurgical recovery of the component, applyingthe process of plasma transferred arc PTA which has very good fats dilutionproperties in comparison to other conventional processes currently applied forthe recovery of tooling, such as GTAW, SMAW, SAW. The experiment was conductedwith input D2 and M2 with one and two welding seams, making the assessmentmetallography, hardness and wear tests pin-on-disk. Finding a decrease in thehardness of the interface line, according to the evaluation of wear pin-on-disk,had a higher wear rate of the filler metal in the M2 D2.
