MasterWeld Tubular Hardfacing Arc Welding Rods
Large in diameter for good coverage, yet only require low current to use, allowing them to be used on both large and small arc welders. Offers extreme abrasion resistance, see features for full technical spec or for technical support call us free on 0800 975 9710.
Superior highly alloyed all positional tubular flux coated electrode for hard facing where extreme abrasion is involved.
Alloy content 40% minimum. Moisture resistant. Smooth easy to use electrode with high deposition rate at low amps (employing higher amps than necessary will result in greater burn off and dilution of the alloy content, and poorer wear life).
Low slag formation allows multi-layer welding without need to de-slag between runs – 4kg/hr. Surface cracking in certain instances may occur, but in practice will assist in the wear performance. The surface cracking has no detriment whatsoever.
The highly abrasive resistant deposits find numerous applications on quarrying and mining machinery and equipment, in brickworks and extensive applications on crushing equipment and on earth moving and agricultural machinery.
