WEARcore XD 70-O is a self-shielded flux-cored wire built for very high resistance to high stress grinding abrasion and to erosion without impact, and the full hardness is reached already in the first layer.
You weld without a cylinder, the pool is shielded by the decomposition of the core ingredients, so the wire suits outdoor work, wind included. It is meant for hardfacing surfaces exposed to abrasion and for maintenance work on worn parts.
- Classification EN ISO: 14700 T Z Fe8
- AWS classification: 8555 MF 6-GF-70-GT
- Shielding: self-shielded, no shielding gas
- Diameters: 1.2 / 1.6 mm
- Hardness of deposit: 70 HRC
Check how many layers you need to reach the target hardness, the first layer always mixes with the base material. Keep the stick-out recommended for self-shielded wires, too short a one spoils the pool shielding and causes porosity. Work with fume extraction, self-shielded wires smoke far more than gas shielded ones. Previously sold as SK Abra-Max-O/G.
