Cleveland-based Postle Industries has announced its latest hardface welding development, tubular hardfacing electrodes for severe abrasion applications, as well as abrasion applications involving high heat or impact.

According to the company, the tubular design allows for a greater volume of carbides for increased abrasion resistance.
Available in sizes 1/4-inch, 3/8-inch and 1/2-inch, their construction allows them to be used in any standard electrode holder at lower currents than conventional electrodes, resulting in less penetration. This produces less distortion, less problems of burn through on thin materials and less dilution with the base metal, says the company. The ¼-inch can be used as low as 80 amps and is ideal for out of position welding. The unique flux coating is moisture resistant, does not require special storage conditions and will not flake off when damp.

Available in six different alloy grades, these tubular hardfacing electrodes have applications in steel mills, cement plants, quarries, road and highway construction, mining, logging and forestry, dredging, foundation drilling, tunneling and underground construction, agriculture/farming, land clearing, demolition and recycling
