This study examined how the strength characteristics of steel can be improved through induction surfacing. Different types of base and surfacing substances were analyzed. The macrophotographs of the treated steel surface were obtained using various methods, and the phases on the steel surface were determined. The microhardness of the different phases was determined. Results suggested that induction surfacing could improve the wear resistance of the samples.
