KH-70-B

Type of coating: Low hydrogen type
Weld metal is martensite structure with carbide and boride precipitates.

▎Classification

AWS A5.13E Fe7
JIS Z3251DF3C-700-B
EN 14700E Fe4
GB T984

▎Applications and Features

  • Weld metal is martensite structure with carbide and boride
    precipitates.
  • It is unable to be machined and cut.
  • High hardness is attainable with only one layer of weld metal. The impact resistance is inferior.
  • It is used in severe metal-to-earth wear, such as repairing construction machines, scraper buckets and dredge pumps.

▎Welding Instruction

  • Dry the electrodes at 300-350°C for 30-60 minutes before use.
  • Preheat temperature should be ≥ 200°C and PWHT should be 600°C.
  • Take the back-step method to prevent porosity at the arc starting.
  • Use high tensile strength low hydrogen electrode for the buffer layer in multi-layer build-up and base metal with high hardenability.

▎Applications

It is used in severe metal-to-earth wear, such as repairing construction machines, scraper buckets and dredge pumps.
