Why choose this cored wire?

  • Extreme resistance to dry abrasion
    ➤ Highly effective against wear from hard and fine materials (sand, clinker, ores, etc.).

  • Very high deposit hardness
    ➤ Typically reaches 60 to 64 HRC, considerably extending the service life of recharged parts.

  • Carbide-rich structure
    ➤ Presence of chromium carbides provides a hard, erosion-resistant barrier.

  • Good surface finish and low bead wear
    ➤ Stable deposit, low cracking (under the right conditions), with good weld appearance.

  • Typical use in fine passes, without heavy impact
    ➤ Not recommended for parts subjected to violent impact or mechanical deformation.
