FCW 19 9 6 G

Flux-cored wire for gas-shielded arc welding

Product description

– Hardfacing flux-cored wire for gas-shielded arc welding

– Deposits an austenitic stainless steel resistant to cracking, impact, cavitation and corrosion

– Scale-resistant up to 850°C, highly insensitive to thermal shock

– Alloy hardens in service if subjected to impact or rolling

Product application instructions

APPLICATIONS

FCW 19 9 6 G is indicated for reconstitution and buttering prior to hardfacing. It is suitable for welding manganese steels, as well as heterogeneous assemblies including difficult-to-weld steels.

Examples

Repairs to rails, switches, railway wheels, crushers and excavators. As a general rule, hardfacing of parts subjected to severe impact, high pressure, corrosion or cavitation.

  • Rails, switches and crossings

  • Beaters and hammers for crushing

Why choose this cored wire?

  • High impact and pressure resistance
    ➤ Thanks to its tough austenitic structure, this wire is ideal for parts subject to repeated impact or heavy mechanical stress.

  • Significant strain-hardening effect
    ➤ Initial hardness around 200 HB, rising to 45 HRC under impact and friction.

  • Good corrosion resistance
    ➤ Stainless composition (Cr-Ni-Mn) suitable for slightly humid, corrosive or moderate-temperature environments.

  • Excellent weldability with shielding gas
    ➤ Better melt control, clean bead, even deposit with low porosity.

  • Multi-pass without risk of cracking
    ➤ Ductile deposit, suitable for thick hardfacing on mild, low-alloy or manganese steel parts.
