Completely machinable deposit for heavy impact and compression on abrasion resistant carbon and low alloy steels. Deposits have excellent toughness and resistance to deformation. They can be forged and flame cut and will respond to heat treatment. Ideal for tractor pads and rollers, sprockets, idlers, hammers, excavators, and all carbon steel parts requiring build-up prior to hardsurfacing.

Procedure

Clean weld area. Use All-State Chamfer rod to remove fatigued or damaged metal. Preheat is usually not necessary but heavy sections may require a preheat of 200° - 300°F (93° - 149°C). Hold a short to medium arc length. Remove all slag between passes. Use stringer or weave beads. Do not allow excessive heat build-up. Allow part to cool slowly.
