"High recovery chrome/cobalt/iron based electrode designed to combat all four elements of wear, i.e. heat, impact, corrosion and abrasion, but with the emphasis on impact properties. The addition of molybdenum refines the grain structure and produces good hot hardness. Excellent for rebuilding corners with minimum base metal dilution. Has ability to overlay extensive areas without cracking. Will retain hardness at high temperatures. The welds are machinable and will work harden under impact. Recommended for use in the iron and steel industries. Designed initially as a forging material for either repairs or sinking. Suitable for use on shear blades and dies, and all applications where good resistance to heat, impact, corrosion and abrasion is required. Due to its excellent impact properties and refined grain strture it is ideally suited to clipping tools and forging punches. "
