All-State® No. 13 and 13FC High Wear Resistant Alloy for Frictional Overlay and Build-Up Torch Application General Characteristics An alloy designed to give exceptional wear resistance on ferrous and nonferrous materials (except white metals). It has high ductility and low coefficient of friction. Deposits are easily machined, yet wearing surfaces become tougher and wear qualities increase with use. You may remelt the previous deposit again and again as you build- up to the required height without loss of toughening elements, fuming or overheating the base metal. All-State® No. 13 will give 10 to 14 times the frictional wear of ordinary steels. Typical Applications Ideal for overlaying and building up gear teeth, shafts, bearings, valve seats and other surfaces subjected to frictional wear. Qualities Tensile strength —up to 85,000 psi (59.77 kgs/mm2) Hardness —90 to 110 BrineIl (500 kg. load) as-welded                —up to 200 BrineIl (500 kg. load) after work hardening Working temperature   —1400°F (760°C) to 1750°F(954°C) Remelt temperature     —1750°F (954°C) minimum Procedures Clean all areas to be joined or built up. When usingNo. 13 bare rods, employ All-State® No. 1113 Flux or All-State Jet Flux® . Use a neutral flame with the torch at a low angle to the work. Preheat starting area to a dull red heat. Apply a small amount of flux and alloy; continue to heat until alloy flows out. Add additional alloy until desired size and shape is obtained. Layer upon layer can be built up without removing flux or cleaning previous deposit. All-State® No. 5 Flux will give better bonding qualities on cast iron or stainless steel.
