Rutile coated electrode for hardfacing of parts, subjected to high metal-to-metal wear, compression and impact at elevated temperatures. Due to its Cr, Mo and Co alloy content, weld metal has high mechanical strength, toughness and thermal resistance to operating temperatures up to 650° C. Has excellent welding properties, a stable and regular metal drop flow, good weld appearance and very easy slag removal. 
Typical Applications: Used for hot work tool steels, hot shear blades, forging dies, aluminum casting and extrusion plactic screws.
