Soudotec 206 Manganese Build-Up Welding Electrode
High-recovery (160%) electrode containing manganese for welding and building up low alloy andhigh alloy steels, manganese steels (11-14% Mn) and difficult-to-weld steels.
- Exceptional weldability and high deposit rate
- Work hardening deposit
- Crack free deposit
- Ideal as a cushion before hardfacing
- Excellent corrosion, oxidation and impact resistance
- Dense and porosity free deposit
- Stable arc and very low spatter
- High temperature resistance
Application
Dissimilar assemblies. Recommended for high-strength steels, manganese steels, T1, CHT 360,Scandia, SPS 245 steels; propellers, pumps, valves, crusher rolls, railroad switches, rails,
construction equipment, etc. Excellent as a cushion before hard facing.
