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. Used in Metal-to-Metal wear applications, works best in impact applications.

Features

  • To be used on carbon steel and low alloy steel
  • Unlimited layers with proper preheat and interpass temperatures and procedures
  • Produces a deposit which resists metal-to-metal wear and mild abrasion
  • The deposit results in an even harder material when used with the Bulk Tungsten Carbide process

NOTES

Note
Interpass temperatures between 150°C (300°F) and 200°C (400°F) do not affect the hardness of Lincore® 55 significantly.
