20 Overlay 56 Open arc wire for heavy impact and abrasion resistance. Use on rock handling equipment, dragline buckets, shovels, dreg buckets, and hammer mills. Not machinable or forgeable. Cannot be cut with an oxy/fuel torch. Two passes limit. 50 Rc hardness. Available in 7/64" (2.8mm) x 50-lb. (22.68 kg) coils. Overlay 1520 Flux cored wire for build-up, joining or overlaying parts subjected to heavy impacts. Use on manganese, carbon and low alloy steels. Performs best with 75 Argon/25 CO 2 mixture short arc; 98/2 or 95/5 Argon/Oxygen for spray arc. Available in .045" (1.1mm) and 1/16" (1.6mm) x 25-lb. (11.34 kg) spools. Overlay 2125 Low alloy build-up wire with good compressive strength and resistnce to plastic deformation. Ideal as a build-up base for subsequent harder wear resistance overlay. It is easily machined in the as-welded condition for both carbon and low allow steels. Typical applications: shaft build-up. Use with CO 2 , but best results are obtained with Argon/CO 2 mixtures. Deposit hardness 21-25 RC.  Available in .045" (1.1mm) and 1/16" (1.6mm) x 25-lb. (11.34 kg) spools. Overlay 3038 Flux cored iron base alloy in .045" (1.1mm) and 1/16" (1.6mm) spools. Use for build-up and joining on carbon, low alloy, manganese, and stainless steels. 30 Rc hardness on first pass. 38 Rc hardness on second pass. Available in 10-lb. (4.54 kg) and 25-lb. (11.34 kg) spools. Overlay 4550 Metal-cored, Gas-shielded, Argon/CO 2 75/25 or Argon Oxygen 98/2 hardsurfacing wire. Tough, shock resistant, tool steel type wire offers good corrosion resistance, excellent metal-to-metal wear and abrasion characteristics. Deposits polish in-service to reduce friction and minimize wear of mating parts. Excellent resistance to heat checking. Multi-layer, crack-free deposits. Typical applications: Forging dies, ingot buggy car wheels, kiln trunnions, steel mill rolls, cable sheaves, dredge ladder rolls, and overlaying of shafts. For use on carbon, stainless and manganese steels. Deposit hardness 45-50 RC. Available in .045" (1.1mm) and 1/16" (1.6mm) x 25-lb. (11.34 kg) spools.
