Description
The Hardface 58-O 1.6mm Core Wire 15kg offers excellent protection against abrasion and moderate impact. This flux-cored welding wire deposits a hard martensitic weld overlay that enhances the life of components exposed to tough wear conditions. It suits industries such as mining, agriculture, construction, and material handling where durability is key.
Ideal for rebuilding loader buckets, crusher parts, conveyor screws, ploughshares, and agricultural tools, the 1.6mm diameter allows deeper penetration and better weld bead control compared to smaller wires. The 15kg spool supplies enough wire for large repair jobs or continuous welding operations.
Welders benefit from the smooth, stable arc and low spatter, which improves welding efficiency and reduces cleanup time. The slag is easy to remove, which further speeds up the workflow. Use DC+ polarity for optimal fusion and penetration on mild and low-alloy steels.
For thick or high-carbon steels, preheat before welding and cool slowly to prevent cracking. The wire performs well in multi-layer hardfacing applications, allowing users to build up wear-resistant surfaces with precise thickness control.
Because this wire resists sliding abrasion and moderate impact, it reduces part replacement and maintenance downtime. Furthermore, its robust alloy composition helps withstand harsh working conditions.
