Product application instructions
APPLICATIONS
The FCW 100 is suitable for rebuilding or hardfacing parts subject to metal-on-metal wear under high pressure, possibly in the presence of corrosive media: pumps and pump casings, valves, ship propellers and propeller shafts, gears, bearings, etc.

Why choose this cored wire?
- Exceptional resistance to seizure and metal-to-metal friction
The FCW 100-G is ideal for parts in sliding or prolonged contact, such as :
-tree spans,
-axes,
-rings,
-guides and seats.
It prevents bonding under pressure (“fretting” effect), even without lubrication.
- Excellent corrosion resistance, even in marine environments
Thanks to its copper-aluminium base, this wire offers excellent resistance to oxidation and salt water, making it an excellent choice for :
-the navy,
-water treatment plants,
-chemical industries.
- Excellent vibration and shock damping
The FCW 100-G deposit remains relatively ductile, enabling it to absorb mechanical stress, prevent cracking and extend part life.
