Why choose this cored wire?
-
Excellent work-hardening properties
The austenitic deposit has an initial hardness of 20 to 25 HRC, which can rise to 45 to 55 HRC under high impact and pressure, increasing wear resistance. -
High impact and pressure resistance
Ideal for parts exposed to demanding service conditions, such as crushing equipment or railway components. -
Compatibility with various steels
Can be welded to ferritic and austenitic steels, including “Hadfield” manganese steel, offering great application flexibility. -
Multi-layer capability without limitation
The deposit can be applied in several layers without risk of cracking, enabling efficient rebuilding of worn parts.
