EN ISO:T Fe9

LINCORE® 15CRMN (FCAW-S) Austenitic manganese alloys, producing tough, high-strength deposits that will workharden under impact

DETAILS

Austenitic manganese alloys, producing tough, high-strength deposits that will workharden under impact. Primarily used for joining, repairing or building up manganese steel parts that need to be joined together or joining manganese to carbon steel, including railroad frogs, impact hammers, rotors and rock crusher rolls. Deposits thickness is unlimited and can be flame cut. Used in applications with high impact and low abrasion.

Features

  • Provides an austenitic manganese deposit which exhibits very good crack resistance
  • Work-hardens for overlay or joining austenitic manganese steel to itself or to carbon steel
  • Can be used as a build-up layer before capping with abrasion resistant alloys
  • Unlimited layers with proper preheat and interpass temperatures and procedures

Typical Applications

  • Spreader cones
  • Crusher hammers
  • Austenitic manganese parts

Welding Positions

  • Flat/Horizontal

NOTES

Note
As with all austenitic manganese welding products, interpass temperatures should be limited to 260°C (500°F) maximum.
A stringer bead, or at most, a slight weave is recommended to limit heat build-up. Excessive heat build-up causes manganese carbide precipitation that damages the toughness of austenitic manganese.
