DF-5042 has been developed specially for the forging industries. It is utilized for partial repair and for finishing dies and component surfaces,to eliminate low spots, and undercuts where flood welding has been performed. DF-5042 is a lime coated electrodes for repair for tools of same analysis and for facings on hot working tools made of low alloyed or unalloyed steels. Especially applicable for facing if machining of the weld deposit is required. Machining is possible with cemented carbide alloy tools. The welding properties are equally good with DC and AC.
For Repairs of following dies : Hot cut forging dies, Press casting dies, Manchels, Lower and Upper dies.
