| Duroxite AP Wire is a gas shielded flux cored all positions hardfacing wire for components experiencing metal-to-metal wear, metal-to-earth wear, impact, and high abrasion applications. The deposit offers a good balance of impact and abrasion resistance. Deposits are forgeable, but can only be machined with special tools. The wire has been developed to operate in a smooth semi-spray transfer mode whilst welding in all positions. The deposited overlay is magnetic on carbon and low alloy steels but not on manganese steels. Duroxite AP Wire can be applied to carbon, low alloy, manganese, and other steel substrates. Duroxite AP Wire is suitable for single and multiple-layer deposit up to three layers. Preheating, interpass temperature, and post-weld heat treatment are as needed according to base metal recommendations. If welding with downhill or uphill position, reduced wire feed speed and voltage are preferred to apply. Key Benefits - Duroxite AP Wire is a hardfacing wire for all positions welding.
- The Duroxite AP Wire deposited overlay consists of medium alloy martensite for good abrasion and impact resistance.
Typical Applications: Duroxite AP Wire has many applications where moderate/high impact and high abrasion wear conditions prevail. Examples: Bucket teeth, tillage tools, bucket lips, bucket sides, cutting edges, sand dredge equipment, dragline buckets, conveyor chutes, grizzly bars, screw flights, metal shredders, sliding metal parts, tire shredder knives, extruder screws, tamper feet, churn drills, muller tires. Especially applicable for all-positional welding and re-instating of hardfacing sealing runs on clad wear plate fabrications.Data provided by SSAB. |
