Purpose
- Metal-cored Cr-Si-Mn flux-cored wire, martensitic tool family — high wear and impact resistance, with good toughness.
Why it works
The martensitic deposit combines high hardness with toughness — unlike purely hard, brittle tool steels, this one holds a sharp edge under impact. It's machinable only by grinding (not by chip removal), which suits parts that must keep a sharp edge.
Fields of application
- Earth and mineral mining machinery: impact drilling and crushing devices, guide springs, cutting-tool edges, bucket teeth and edges.
- Debarking knives, agricultural tillage tools, excavation bucket lips.
