Product description
Thick basic covered electrode for hardfacing of parts subjected to high metal-to-metal friction, mineral abrasion and moderate impact. A tough buffer layer with ESB 42 is recommended before hardfacing, if base metal has high carbon content and low weldability. Heat treatment after hardfacing will decrease as-welded hardness. Weld metal can be grinded and machined by carbide-tipped tools. Typical Applications: Hardfacing of ceramic tile moulds, mixer blades, crushers, earth moving equipments, hot cut-offs, shear blades, dies for pressure casting, scraper blades, conveyors and rollers.
