STOODY® Build-Up LH deposit is a low alloy steel designed for low severity metal-to-metal wear. The electrode has a special low hydrogen coating which provides a high strength fusion bond on carbon and low alloy steels. As a base alloy for hardsurfacing overlays or for restoring parts to original dimensions, it provides a weld deposit with excellent compressive strength capable of absorbing heavy impact and/ or compressive loads. It can be applied in multiple layers without cracking, spalling, or mushrooming. It is machinable in the as welded condition with reasonable procedural care and can be forged at red heat. It is not recommended for manganese steel or cast iron and does not work harden. It should not be used for joining.
