Basic coated electrode for hardfacing of parts, subjected to high metal-to-metal wear, compression and impact at elevated temperatures. Due to it's Cr and Mo alloy content, weld metal has high mechanical strength, toughness and thermal resistance to operating temperatures up to 550° C. Used for hot and cold cutting tools, hot shear blades, forging dies, die cast moulds. It enables the production of new tools at more affordable costs by hardfacing base metals which have adequate tensile strength and alloying elements. Has excellent welding properties, a stable and regular metal drop flow, good weld bead appearance and very easy slag removal.
