A hardfacing electrode depositing a weld metal with a high volume fraction of fine carbides in a martensitic matrix. It is designed for protection of parts subjected to severe abrasion from rock, sand, cement, etc. Applications: Earth-drilling equipment. Hammers, scrapers, knives, conveyor screws,etc.
