Weld Deposit Characteristics
Thick basic-covered electrode for producing hardfacing deposits of medium hardness, which can be machined by chip-forming. Particularly suited for wear resisting parts subjected to metal-to-metal wear, heavy impact and shock. It can be easily welded in all positions, except vertical-down. Weld metal is crack resistant and free of pores.
Weld Deposit Properties
Recommended Application
Suitable for reconditioning of rails, rail crossings, switch points, sprockets and wearing parts, such as rope pulleys, tumblers, rollers, caterpillar track rollers and links, wheel flanges, stud links and others.

Notes on usage:
Hold stick electrode as vertically as possible and with a short arc. Preheat heavy parts and higher-tensile steels to 250 – 350° C. Stick electrodes that have got damp should be redried for 2 h / 300° C.
We do hereby certify that; the weld metal deposit, has been tested, mechanically and chemically and all results are comply with the requirements of specifications of Elkadesia for engineering industries and the Specification of ASME II part C SFA 5.01 Class C5 and level of tests in J or 5.
