DETAILS
Ideal for building up on carbon and low alloy steels. Use as an underbase for carbon steel parts prior to hardfacing. Great compressive strength under heavy loading. Deposits are generally crack free, machinable and can be flame cut. Deposit thickness is unlimited.Use as an underbase for carbon steel parts prior to hardfacing build-up appliacation.
Features
- Can be used in open arc mode for joining austenitic manganese steel to carbon steel, low alloy steel, austenitic , or stainless steel
- Unlimited layers with proper preheat and interpass temperatures and procedures
- Can be used as a build-up layer before capping with abrasion resistant alloys
- Delivers non-severe metal-to-metal wear with outstanding crack resistance
- Ideal for rebuilding worn parts to near final dimensions before applying final hardfacing layers which are more wear resistant
- Can also be used as the final hardfacing layer for non-severe metal-to-metal wear applications

NOTES
Note |
---|
As with all austenitic manganese welding products, interpass temperatures should be limited to 260°C (500°F) maximum. |
A stringer bead, or at most, a slight weave is recommended to limit heat build-up. Excessive heat build-up causes manganese carbide precipitation that damages the toughness of austenitic manganese. |
