Due to the high Niobium content this alloy offers very good resistance against abrasion by minerals, all weld metal requires no buffer layer except on materials considered critical or old hardsurfacing layers. In this Situation OA 4370, ER 100 SG is recommended. Suited for wear parts subject to heavy impact and shock. In critical cases such as cement rollers the interpass temperature should be kept at 270ºC for the best results. The weld metal is only machinable by grinding. Due to the production method (seamless wire) this wire can be stored for a long time without the risk of moisture pick up and has excellent feeding and welding properties. Weldable without protective gas. (Also weldable with M21 mixed gas)
Hardfacing alloy against heavy impact and shock for hammers, crushers, buckets, conveyors, crusher jaws, stone crushers, crushing rollers etc.
