FEATURES & APPLICATIONS |
For repair and reclamation of tools and dies subject to heat checking.
- Tungsten free hot work tool steel electrode.
- Deposits maintain a very sharp edge.
- Alloying elements include molybdenum and vanadium.
- Weld metal maintains many of the properties of H13 tool steel.
- Also available in TIG form as product code 6111.
