Gas shielded flux cored wire, providing 18Cr – 8Ni – 7Mn austenitic stainless steel weld metal. Used for buffer layer applications and joining of 14% Manganese steels to high manganese steels, stainless steels and carbon steels. Additionally, it is well-suited for buffer layer application on 14% Mangganese steels. Due to it’s high crack resistant weld metal, suitable for joining dissimilar steels, difficult-to-weld steels, armor plates and buffer layer application in crack sensitive large sections before hardfacing.

Typical Applications: Used for joining wear plates to bucket, joining bucket teeth, joining and surfacing of rails, switch points, crossovers and press arms.
