Ideal for use on manganese steel. Under severe impact, such as hammering or pounding, deposits quickly become tougher and harder, and will not spall or mushroom. Build X Plus may be used alone, as a combination buildup and hardfacing alloy or used as a buildup and cushion prior to overlaying with a more abrasion resistant alloy. Build X Plus is an all ¬position electrode for joining or overlaying for high impact. It operates on either AC or DC reverse; the arc is smooth and stable with low spatter loss, Slag removal is easy.
