HARDFACING ARC 43
HARDFACING ARC 43
Description and HARDFACING ARC 43 is a heavy coated, hard surfacing electrode depositing extremely hard, abrasion resistant Chromium/Niobium carbides in an austenitic matrix. It is ideal for hard surfacing applications where resistance to extreme abrasion (in particular sliding abrasion) and moderate to heavy impact are required. Due to the nodular shape of the co,plex carbides, HARDFACING ARC 43 deposits are capable of withstanding heavier impact levels than standard chromium carbide grades. Typical applications include bucket teeth/lips, grizzlies, press screws, crusher hammers and ripper teeth to name but a few. Deposit Properties HARDFACING ARC 43 deposits are non-machinable, gridable, prone to fine relief checking and should be restricted to 3 layers high. While two layers of HARDFACING ARC 43 may be required for maximum wear resistance, this complex carbide alloy has lower dilution sensitivity than straight chromium carbide deposits.
