Lincore® 40-S

Metal-Cored Submerged Arc (SAW)

LINCORE® 40-S Metal-Cored Submerged Arc Wire designed for rebuilding heavy equipment undercarriages, use on carbon and low alloy steels for good puddle control on roundabout welding limited to 4 layers (Metal-to-Metal)

DETAILS

LINCORE® 40-S Metal-Cored Submerged Arc Wire deposit is machinable and hot forgeable and resists rolling and sliding metal-to-metal wear, typical applications on Idlers, Drive sprockets and Mine car wheels. Recommended flux use of 801 Primary flux, 802 and 860 secondary flux. 802 and 860 standard flux are not sized for semiautomatic applications; however, they can be ordered in special sizing by contacting your Lincoln Electric representative.
