Welding electrodes HS-Fe2

EN 14700: E Fe2
Terms of use
  • deposition is carried out with pre-heating and (or) additional heating at not less than 200 °С (392°F); 
  • perform surfacing with a short arc with minimum base metal engagement; 
  • to achieve maximum wear resistance when working with low-carbon steels, it is necessary to apply at least 2 layers.
Special properties
  • high productivity and stable spray-metal transfer; 
  • mechanical processing of tempered deposited metal - milling, drilling, turning.
HS-Fe2 electrodes are designed for the deposition of strengthening layers that work in metal-to-metal abrasion environment in combina- tion with medium-high impact load conditions. Electrodes are used for surfacing of automobile and railway elements and parts, as well as couplings, axles, shafts etc. Electrodes ensure highly productive welding process with improved technological properties. Moreover, they provide alloyed martensitic weld deposit with carbidic and nitrite hardening.
