Product name:KH-13M
 
Classification:A5.13
 
 

  1. Weld metal remains a stable austenite structure even with air or water cooling after welding.
  2. It provides good resistance to abrasion accompanied by heavy impact and good toughness. However, it is not resistant to abrasive wear.
  3. It is suitable for repairing constructions, mining, railroads and steel mills.
  4. It is ideal for melt-in fusion and welding of high manganese steel.

 

Welding Instruction

(1) Dry the electrodes at 300-350°C for 30-60 minutes before use.

(2) Take skip welding method to prevent the embrittlement because the local overheat (above 260°C) causes the carbides to precipitate. The weld bead should not exceed 20mm (W) × 5mm (T) × 100mm (L).

(3) The old hardfacing layer should be gouged first. Cracks are beveled by carbon cutting electrode and repaired by KS-309 before welding with KH-13M
