FLUX-CORED WIRE
FROGBUILD 575W-M Flux-Cored Wire is an improved solution for the repair and build-up of manganese castings. It produces a clean weld deposit with improved slag release and less smoke. The higher alloy content produces a tougher deposit which is more resistant to impact and compression, resulting in less flow and extended life.
PROCEDURES
Remove all work hardened and fatigued material by grinding or air carbon arc gouging. Deposit should be made with a stringer bead making sure each pass is tied into the one adjacent by a 40% overlap. Bead width should not exceed 5/8”. Do not preheat manganese. The base metal temperature must not exceed 500° F. Interpass temperature should not be above 350° F.
