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.
Features
- Welds best with Lincolnweld® 801® Submerged Arc (SAW) Flux, Lincolnweld® 802® Submerged Arc (SAW) Flux, or Lincolnweld® 860® Submerged Arc (SAW) Flux
- Deposit is unlimited layers
- Metal-cored wire with moderate hardness for build-up before stainless overlay
- Good crack resistance and high compressive strength
