Description
WIA Austarc 350 Hard Facing Electrodes 3.2mm 5kg – HF35032
Tough Hardfacing Electrode for Wear Protection
The WIA Austarc 350 hardfacing electrode protects steel components against metal-to-metal wear and moderate abrasion. It suits rebuild and maintenance work on parts exposed to friction, rolling contact, and impact. The 3.2mm size delivers solid deposition rates for workshop and industrial repairs.
Durable Martensitic Alloy Deposit
Abrasocord 350 deposits a tough martensitic alloy with typical hardness around 350 BHN. The weld metal resists wear while still maintaining good toughness under impact conditions. The deposit also work-hardens during service, which improves wear resistance over time.
Smooth Arc and Reliable Control
This electrode runs with a stable arc on both AC and DC welding machines. It strikes easily, re-starts cleanly, and provides good weld control during repair work. Low spatter levels help reduce cleanup time and improve workflow efficiency.
Built for Maintenance and Rebuild Work
The HF35032 suits shafts, rollers, bucket edges, rail components, gears, agricultural machinery, and earthmoving equipment. It performs well where parts require a balance of toughness and wear resistance rather than extreme hardness.
Machinable After Welding
Unlike ultra-hard hardfacing alloys, Abrasocord 350 remains machinable after welding. Operators can rebuild worn components and machine them back to final size where required. This improves flexibility during maintenance and repair work.
Workshop-Ready 5kg Pack
The 5kg pack suits regular hardfacing and maintenance applications. It stores easily and provides practical consumable volume for ongoing industrial and agricultural repair work.
Trusted WIA Hardfacing Performance
WIA manufactures Austarc hardfacing electrodes for dependable wear protection in demanding environments. The Abrasocord range remains widely used across agriculture, mining, fabrication, and heavy industry to extend component life and reduce downtime.
