Product description
Hilchrome 312R is our rutile coated electrode which is to be considered as a problem solver for all kinds of steel grades including stainless and difficult-to-weld steels. Typical applications for this WELD-ALL include joining hard manganese steels, tool steels, spring steels, buffering as well as joining dissimilar steel grades. The electrode deposits a crack-resistant weld metal with an increased ferrite content of approx. FN50. Hilchrome 312R is a core wire alloyed all-current type (AC/DC).
