Basic coated electrode for build-up and hardfacing of parts subjected to high metal-or-metal wear, compression, impact at elevated temperatures. Weld metal is resistant to operating temperatures up to 550° C. Electrode can also be used for production of new hot and cold cutting tools and their edges, which are made of low alloy steels. Has a stable arc, good bead appearance and very easy slag removal. 
Typical Applications: Due to it's high strength, toughness and heat resistance ideally suited for hot and cold cutting tools, hot shears blades, forging dies,  saddles, hammers, die cast moulds
