Welding wire UTP WEARMIG DUR 600 (UTP A Dur 600)

WEARmig Dur 600 solid wire – GMAW hardfacing wire for wear-resistant cladding

WEARmig Dur 600 is a highly wear-resistant solid wire for GMAW hardfacing of components exposed to heavy impact and medium abrasion. The wire is ideal for repair, maintenance, and wear protection in demanding industrial applications.

Typical areas of application include equipment and components in quarries, rock processing, mining, steelworks, cement plants, as well as cutting and forming tools in the automotive industry. The deposited weld metal achieves high hardness while remaining tough, crack-resistant, and edge-retaining. Machining is possible by grinding.

Application advice

The welding area should be ground to a metallic bright finish before hardfacing. Preheating is generally only required for tool steels, for which preheating to approx. 450 °C is specified.

WEARmig Dur 600 is the right choice when components need to be protected against wear, impact loading, and abrasive stress, or need to be repaired.
