TeroMatec® OA 3952

Special, self-shielded, flux cored alloy wire specifically developed for outdoor maintenance and repair welding of thick, heavy components where faster weld deposition rates over traditional coated electrodes, are required. Worn or new critical parts may be cost effectively Terocote protected either manually or fully automatically to extend their use-ful service life and increase productivity and profitability.High chromium, columbium hyper-eutectic iron-based alloy depositing complex carboborides for wear-protective coating of carbon steels, low or high alloy steels and 14% Mn steels. Excellent resistance to severe abrasion and ero-sion up to 1200°F (649°C) service temperatures. Single pass provides optimum, intrinsic properties. Ready formation of stress relieving cracks to minimize distortion. Slag free deposits save weld cleaning time. Deposits are smooth, flat, grindable and rust resistant. Ideal choice for field work or on site applications. No need for costly gas cylinders, regulators or flow meters. Core deoxidizers tolerate air currents or draught effects. Relatively thick, wide overlays possible in single pass. No enforced stop - starts increase welding duty cycles.
