ESAB Wear-Arc 6-IP Electrode - 5/32" X 14" - 10 lb HS - 259035301

The iron powder low hydrogen coating of Wear-Arc 6-IP electrodes promotes good bonds with manganese and carbon steels. Wear-Arc 6-IP is recommended for the reclamation of parts subject to wear caused by abrasion and light impact. This electrode is ideal for field work where parts cannot be positioned for downhand welding. Typical applications are: Shovel buckets and teeth, Dragline buckets and teeth, Pug mill paddles, Tamping tools, Screens, Asphalt mixer paddles, Crushing equipment, Granulators, Trunnions, Truck bodies.

Procedure

Warning:
The iron powder, low hydrogen coating of Wear-Arc 6-IP electrodes provides excellent arc characteristics and high deposition rates in all positions using AC or DC, either polarity. A weaving technique is recommended. Deposit thickness should be limited to two passes or 1/4" (6.4 mm) maximum. Weld deposits are not machinable are smooth, requiring a minimum amount of grinding to bring them to shape. Weld deposits cannot be cut with oxy-acetylene torch or by air carbon-arc cutting.
