Is a slag-bearing, austenitic, high manganese and chromium alloyed cored wire electrode. The weld metal is rust resistant, work hardening, amagnetic and has high toughness. The alloy is used on parts subjected to the highest impact wear and pressure, and also for buffer layers before hardfacing. The weld metal is less prone to embrittlement due to low carbide precipitation.
The welding wires are used for rails and switches, rollers, rolls, crusher jaws, buffer layers, caterpillar plates, wheels, running rings of rotary furnaces...
The hardness grade is 220 - 250 HB (hardened 500 HB).
