Gas shielded flux cored wire for hardfacing of parts, subjected to high metal to metal wear, abrasion and impact. Weld metal can retain it’s hardness under high temperatures. The weld metal is crack resistant and also highly resistant to impact and abrasion. When thick hardfacing is necessary, it is recommended to weld only the last two layers with FCH 373 and to use FCW 30 for build-up layers. The weld deposit contains hard carbides. Machining is only possible by grinding or hot chip forming.

Typical Applications : Hardfacing of roll type crushers, worn conveyors, scraper blades, dipper teeth etc.
