Abstract: The present invention relates to an iron-based alloy that is able to provide a coating on a substrate, the coating having simultaneously high hardness and wear resistance. The iron-based alloy consists of 3.0-7.0% by weight Cr; 1.3-3.0% by weight C; 0.2-2.0% by weight B; 2.0-10.0% by weight V; optionally 1.5% by weight or less Si; optionally 1.0% by weight or less Mn, optionally 2.0% by weight or less Mo; optionally 1.5% by weight or less Ni; the balance being Fe and unavoidable impurities. The present invention further relates to an article comprising a substrate and coating formed thereon, the coating being formed from the alloy, and to a method for forming a coated article. The method preferably employs HVOF, laser cladding or plasma cladding.
