Lincore® BU

Flux-Cored Self-Shielded (FCAW-S)

LINCORE BU Flux-Cored Wire ideal for rebuilding worn parts to near final dimensions before applying final hardfacing layers which are more wear resistant. Can also be used as the final hardfacing layer for typical applications applications on Cable sheaves, Crane wheels, Drums and pulleys (Build-Up)

DETAILS

LINCOREĀ® BU Flux-Cored Wire delivers non-severe metal-to-metal wear with outstanding crack resistance. Provides a tough machinable deposit for build-up or final overlay, Composition and properties depend upon dilution. Single layer deposit properties depend upon base metal and/or build-up material.
