Re: [MW:6954] AWS CODE FOR HARDFACING ELECTRODE

Dear Pramod,

Normally for hardfacing electrodes, there is no AWS codes and all. As you know well, depending upon the applications, wear factors and base metal history, we will select and recommend the suitable hardfacing electrode. Moreover, achieving the hardness of 55 to 60 HRC by hardfacing electrode can be done even with single chemical element. It doesn't matter. But, the weld metal chemistry (chemical composition), weld matrix, dilution and welding process are very very important to provide the expected wear resistance, prolong the service life, reduce the downtime of the base metal. We have to always analyse the applications and wear factors in all the aspects. 

1. Abrasion. 2. Erosion 3. Corrosion 4. Heat Oxidation 5. Cavitation. 5. Impact. 6.Friction.

According to application, wear factors, base metal chemistry, & required wear resistance,
the weld metal chemistry should be. So, only for hardness, we could not say the chemistry. 

But, instead of AWS codes, for mostly all hardfacing electrodes, we have DIN standard. 

If you are in india or any other country, you can contact Bohler Welding Group 
engineers who will really help and support you in technical things. Bohler is a world renowned company and the master of welding solutions and services.

Dear sir,
Let me know the AWS code for hardfacing electrodes used for achieving Hardness upto 55-60 HRC.
