Why choose this cored wire?
Copper-aluminium cored wire is an excellent choice for hardfacing parts subject to wear, corrosion or metal-to-metal friction.
It deposits a highly resistant bronze-aluminium alloy, with good adhesion to various metals (steel, cast iron, copper…).
It is often used to reload mechanical parts, such as worms, shaft bearings or valve gates.
This type of deposit is non-stick, ideal for preventing seizing or sticking under load. It is also highly resistant to corrosion, even in marine environments.
The flux-cored wire ensures fast, even deposition and high productivity. It can be used without gas, making it practical for worksites.
In short, it’s a robust, economical and versatile choice for efficiently protecting or repairing technical parts.
