Mostof the hard surfacing alloys are air hardenable and heattreatable. They provide a good balance of impact andabrasion resistance. Martensitic alloys also have relativelyhigh compression strength and excellent metal-to-metalwear resistance.<strong>McKay</strong> Martensitic <strong>Product</strong>sHardalloy 32Hardalloy M-932Hardalloy 58Hardalloy 61Photomicrograph of martensite.Carbide AlloysCarbide alloys are very much like asphalt. There are carbides(gravel) and matrix (tar). The carbides are what give theexcellent abrasion resistance while the matrix (tar) holdsthe carbides in place and offers some impact resistance.Carbides are extremely hard and brittle. They cannot handleimpact. The more carbides there are the higher the abrasionresistance but the lower the impact resistance.<strong>McKay</strong> Carbide <strong>Product</strong>sHardalloy 148Hardalloy 40 TiCHardalloy 140Hardalloy 155Photomicrograph of large carbides in a carbideeutectic matrix.34

There are carbides(gravel) and matrix (tar). The carbides are what give theexcellent abrasion resistance while the matrix (tar) holdsthe carbides in place and offers some impact resistance.Carbides are extremely hard and brittle.

¤TechnicalSectionOven Storage and Reconditioning of Filler MetalsWelding electrodes, wire, and flux may be damaged by atmosphericmoisture. The following table recommends proper storage conditions,and time and temperature for reconditioning electrodes that haveabsorbed excess moisture.Notes for table: Pallets and unopened cartons of electrodes andwire should be stored away from exposure to water in the form of rain,snow, spray, or humidity. Only hermetically sealed cans are safe againstthese conditions. Damaged cartons permit entry of damp air which maybe picked up by the product and lower its quality. Humidity below 50%should be avoided for 6010, 6011, 6012 and 6013 electrodes. At notimes should these classes of electrodes be stored in an oven above175°F.The instruction, “Dry at Room Temperature” in the table signifies thatthe humidity should be below 70% and the temperature should bewithin the limits 40°F and 120°F.When reconditioning flux, it is important that the complete mass bebrought up to the temperature desired. If the flux is held in largecontainers, this can take a very long time – perhaps over 24 hours. Inthin layers, reduction in moisture can be accomplished in as little as onehour, for example, in layers one to two inches thick. Fossil fuel burners(natural gas, oil, etc.) are not recommended.CAUTION: Welding characteristics of agglomerated flux may suffer iftemperature exceeds 650°F.Item Designation Storage of Contents Reconditioning*of Open Cartons*Mild Steel – 6010, 6011 Dry at room temperature Not reommendedMild Steel – 6012, 6013, 7014, 7024 100F - 175F 250F - 300FMild Steel, Low Hydrogen, Low Alloy – 7016 and all XXX18 215F - 450F 700 F - 800FStainless Steel Stick ElectrodesSterling AP & AC/DC (AWS-16), DC Lime (AWS-15) 215F - 260F 400F - 600FSterling (AWS-17) 215F - 260F 350F - 425FHardalloy ® Surfacing 215F - 260F 450F - 600FSpecial Maintenance - GP 215F - 260F 500FCast Iron Electrodes 215F - 230F 250F - 300FSub-Arc Fluxes 250F 600FMild Steel Solid Wire Dry at room temperature Not recommendedTubular Wires – Speed-Alloy ® , Tube-Alloy ® , In-Flux ® 0, ChromaWeld Dry at room temperature Not recommended*Be sure that electrodes, wire, or fluxes are properly removed from packaging that may be damaged.
