CLASSIFICATIONS:
EN/ISO : T Fe2

Lincore® 55 (FCAW-S) Low Alloy steels designed for rebuilding of carbon or low alloy parts used in applications involving non-lubricated rolling or sliding metal-to-metal wear

DETAILS

Low Alloy steels designed for rebuilding of carbon or low alloy parts used in applications involving non-lubricated rolling or sliding metal-to-metal wear, and in applications with severe abrasion accompanied by low or moderate impact, works best in Metal-to-Earth applications

Features

  • Delivers a deposit which resists metal-to-metal rolling or sliding wear as well as mild abrasion
  • To be used on carbon steel, low alloy steel and manganese steels
  • Unlimited layers with proper preheat and interpass temperatures and procedures

Typical Applications

  • Crane wheels
  • Blower blades
  • Rail ends
  • Skip guides
  • Cams and transfer tables

Welding Positions

  • Flat/Horizontal

NOTES

Note
Cold parts should be warmed to at least 25°C (75°F). Higher preheat of 150 - 260°C (300 - 500°F) may be necessary on thick parts or heavy sections.
Interpass temperatures between 150°C (300°F) and 200°C (400°F) do not affect the hardness of Lincore® 55 significantly.
