High alloy and high hardness flux cored wire, especially used for hardfacing welds of parts subject to high metal-to-metal frictional wear and medium impact. The weld metal has high toughness and crack resistance and is resistant to shocks and impacts. The weld metal maintains its hardness at working temperatures up to 600°C. The weld metal can be machined with stone or carbide inserts. For high carbon and low weldability materials, a buffer layer with FCW 30 is recommended before hardfacing. Heat treatment reduces the hardness after welding.
Typical Applications: Hardfacing of hot cutting and stripping blades, die casting molds, separator and shredder blades, conveyors, rollers, crusher rolls, parts of earth-moving machines, bucket lugs and wear parts of agricultural tools.
