Hardfacing Selection Guide | Weldclass Australia
Weldclass offers a range of tried-and-tested hardfacing consumables, including hardfacing MIG wire and hardfacing welding rods / electrodes.
Hardfacing Costs and Downtime
Time is money and often the biggest cost-component of the hardfacing process is; a) the time and labour involved in applying hardfacing, and b) the down-time or loss of production while equipment is out of service . This labour/downtime cost is often much higher than the cost of the hardfacing product (wire or electrodes) itself.
This is why Weldclass has worked with leading manufacturers and metallurgical experts globally to develop hardfacing wires and electrodes that suit Australian conditions and offer superior wear life, to increase equipment service life, reduce down-time costs, and increase up-time.
To achieve this, here's a guide to help you select the best product for your application.

Abrasive wear with low-to-moderate impact, eg:
- Ground-engaging equipment used in sandy and clay soils
- Rocky soils where contact against rock is more grinding action rather than heavy collision impact
- General agricultural and earthmoving equipment
- Tynes, Points, Auguers, etc

Abrasive wear with heavy impact (shocks & blows), eg:
- Ground-engaging equipment which is subject to heavy collision impact against rock
- Crushing equipment, Grizzly bars, etc
&#;
&#;
&#;&#;
&#;
&#;&#;
Where exact nature of wear is not known in advance, eg:
- Application will involve abrasive wear, but could also be subject to heavy impact
- Metal-to-earth applications where equipment is used in different locations and varying soil types

What is hardfacing ?
In the context of welding, hardfacing is applying a special weld metal to equipment or components, to create a hard surface that will provide better wear resistance than the base metal, thus extending the service life of the equipment.

You didn't say what you are working on but something else to consider might be tungsten capping. It can be tricky to put on without cracking it. Also chrome carbide points or capping. If extreme hard pan conditions or rocks forget the capping stick with hard facing. Rocks can break tungsten or chrome carbide caps.
3rd vote for Stoody 31. It's what I use on deep ripper chisel shanks. Used Stoody 19 before that but they quit making it. Your LWS that sells Stoody or on their site will have an abrasion chart to help and will tell what works best for your base metal and welding process. Well well someone at the LWS lied to me ? Stoody 19 is still on their website. I still vote for the 31 though.You didn't say what you are working on but something else to consider might be tungsten capping.
