All-State®
Wear Hard Electrode
for Attachment and Build-up on Manganese and Low Alloy Steels
AC or DC Reverse Polarity
All Position General
Characteristics All-State®
Wear Hard Electrode is high in alloy content and is extremely deformation resistant
and has 2-4 times greater
wear resistance than work-hardened austenitic manganese steel.
Typical Applications
Deposits of Wear Hard when subjected
to high impact and compressive loads, develops a surface hardness of
48-50 Rc and still retains a tough
resilient, deformation-resistant mass under the work-hardened surface. Ideal
for rebuilding and repairing equipment
constructed of manganese steel, as well as for using on alligator type
shear blades.
