Good bond on steel, cast steel, manganese steel.
Smooth deposit with very low friction coefficient.
Long beads.
Dredger teeth, grab jaws, stirring tools, mixers, wearplates, dredge pump parts, centrifugal pumps, augers, tillage tools.
Hardness: 57-62 HRC
Electrode position: almost 90° to work piece.
Weld with a short arc and at lowest possible amperage to avoid dilution with the base material.
To obtain a crack-free coating: pre-heat material according to the instructions of the supplier.
For thick layers: Use Lastek 27 as base layer.
