RX®ww 6996-O

Short Description:

self-shielded flux cored wire (for hardfacing)

● Tubular wire for self-shielded metal arc hardfacing

● chromium-nickel-manganese-austenite on iron-base

● C – Cr – Ni – Mn – Fe

● Austenitic stainless weld deposit

● Good impact, cavitation and corrosion resistance

● The weld deposit work hardens to different degrees depending on amount of impact

● Resists scaling up to 850°C, good resistance to thermal shocks

  • 6996-O is mainly used to rebuild components exposed to high impact and corrosion Sub-layer before hardfacing, particularly on manganese steels and “hard to weld” steels Buffer layers for welding on black manganese steel, for welding on hardenable steel and for welding of hardfacings.Hardfacing on rails, switches, tumblers, striking pins, components subjected to thermal stress, e.g. in rockwool production Examples : Steel mill rolls, metallurgical plant guides, tram and train rails and crossings, high speed forming rolls.
