Premium Open Arc, Wearfacing Wire for Combating Abrasion with Impact
5716 FW - Chrome Iron
WIRE • Economical, welder friendly wear-facing wire • Resistant to sliding abrasion with some impact •Excellent for crushing and grinding operations
DESCRIPTION:
PROCEDURE FOR USE:
5716 FW is a small-diameter, open-arc wire for applications requiring precise, low-heat deposits. Hexagonal carbides in a Chromium reinforced matrix make 5716 excellent for resistance to grinding, fine particle and 3-body abrasion with low to moderate impact, especially for lower power rated machines and applications that cannot easily be dismantled and moved for hardfacing.
Caution: Although a 2-roll wire drive assembly will work the optimum for maintaining arc voltage stability and consistent and smooth wire feeding is a serrated 4-roll drive assembly. Smooth drive rolls are not recommended!
TECHNICAL DATA: Hardness as-deposited (3-passes max.): 55-58 HRC Wear Data (ASTM G65 Test): 35 mm³ Power Source Type: Constant voltage and Integrated Wire Drive Current & Polarity: DC (+) electrode positive
APPLICATIONS: APPLICATIONS • Cement Grinder Rings • Ash plows • Bucket Lips • Pug Mill Blades • Refuse crusher Rolls • Bucket Teeth

Step 1: Remove all “old” cracked or spalled weld metal down to a sound base. Step 2: 5716 has a maximum of 3 layers. Depending on the amount of build-up or repair required, the use of a bond or cushion may be necessary. If unsure, consult a professional. Step 3: Preheat the part to be hardfaced depending on its air hardenabilty and/or carbon level. Note: 5716 is an open-arc wire, however CO2 with a 35-45 scfh can be used if desired to cool the gun and reduce fuming. Step 4: After testing welding conditions on a piece of scrap metal, position the gun head at 70-80° from the vertical in the direction of travel. Continue with a downhand ‘pull’ technique to apply stringer or a slight weaving bead. Avoid excess weaving as it may result in porosity, insufficient penetration, overheating and/or reduced deposit properties. Note: If welding is interrupted and the part being welded cools to room temperature, make sure to reheat to the original preheat temperature.
Step 5: For hardenable steels slow cooling is advised using blankets, vermiculite, or other environmentally suitable heat-retardant material.
