Why choose this cored wire?

  • High resistance to impact and mechanical stress
    The martensitic deposit offers a hardness of around 350 HB, suitable for parts subjected to significant impact and pressure.

  • Application versatility
    Suitable for restoring and hardfacing components such as track shoes and rollers, molds, dies, gear teeth and mill coupling shaft ends.

  • Ease of use
    Offers excellent arc stability and optimal feeding properties, enhancing the welding experience.

  • Adaptability of welding parameters
    Can be used in direct polarity (DC-) to reduce dilution and promote high deposit hardness.
