Wear resistant

Castolin Eutectic's wear-resistant MIG/MAG flux-cored wires are a reliable choice for industries seeking to enhance the durability and performance of their equipment. With a focus on sustainability, efficiency, and innovation, these products help reduce maintenance costs, improve safety, and contribute to a circular economy.
Castolin Eutectic offers a range of flux-cored wires under the EnDOtec® brand, designed for industrial wear protection, repair, and joining applications. These wires are suitable for various industries, including hydropower, cement, steel works, automotive, and more.

Key Features:

  • High Deposition Rates: Flux-cored wires provide higher deposition rates compared to solid wires, making them ideal for heavy-duty applications.
  • Versatility: Suitable for both joining and coating applications, including protective coatings for new parts and the build-up and repair of worn parts.
  • Enhanced Wear Resistance: Formulated to provide superior resistance to abrasion, impact, and high temperatures.
  • Ease of Use: Continuous wire feed allows for semi-automatic or fully automatic welding, improving productivity and reducing operator fatigue.

Applications:

  • Hydropower: Repair and protection of turbine components.
  • Cement Industry: Hardfacing of crusher hammers, anvil, and casings.
  • Steel Works: Maintenance of rollers, rotors, and other critical components.
  • Automotive: Joining and repair of body panels and structural components.
  • Mining: Protection of equipment exposed to severe abrasion and impact.

Technical Considerations:

  • Shielding Gas: The choice of shielding gas affects the arc characteristics, droplet transfer, and overall weld quality. Common gases include argon, carbon dioxide, and mixtures.
  • Welding Parameters: Voltage, current, and wire feed speed must be optimized for each application to achieve the best results.
  • Safety Measures: Proper ventilation and protective equipment are essential to prevent exposure to harmful fumes and gases.
