Oerlikon Fluxocord 54 description: FLUXOCORD 54 is a seamless copper coated basic flux cored wire suitable for SAW hardfacing in combination with the flux OP 122. It is used for hardfacing rollers, caterpillar track jackwheels, bearing surfaces, conveyor belt wheels and rolls, etc. Due to its low carbon content, the weld metal is very tough and therefore particularly resistant to shock and impact. The weld metal is machinable using carbide tipped tools. With highly hardenable base metals a buffer layer is required, deposited with FLUXOCORD 31/OP 121TT. Interpass temperatures up to 400C will not considerably effect deposit hardness.
