FCW Steelcarbw

• Tubular hardfacing wire for self shielded arc welding

• Wire is made from a steel strip filled with tungsten carbides

• Weld deposit is extremely abrasion resistant

APPLICATIONS

FCW Steelcarbw is used for hardfacing components subject to extreme abrasion and moderate impact. The weld deposit contains hard primary tungsten carbide granules in a secondary carbide eutectic matrix. The fine granulometry avoids wear by destruction of the matrix.

Examples

Used to protect carbide tool holders in mining machinery, drill bits, pug mill paddles and augers, mixer blades, paddles, drill collars and tool joints, dredge cutters, fan blades, muller ploughs, sand mixer blades, churn drills, post hole digger teeth, sand and gravel chutes, feed screws, oil industry drill stabilisers.
