Benefits Excellent abrasion, impact, high heat and crack resistance Machinable with metallic carbide tipped tools Multi-purpose hardfacing wire Ideal for rebuilding and joining carbon and 14% manganese steels Can be used as a buffer layer prior to hard overlay Bohler UTP WEARcore MnCr13-O, formerly SK AP-O Hardfacing Flux-Cored MIG Wire is a multi-purpose hardfacing wire that is ideal for rebuilding and joining carbon and 14% manganese steels. It can also be used as a buffer layer prior to hard overlay. UTP WEARcore MnCr13-O is a work-hardenable alloy that provides excellent abrasion resistance, impact resistance, high heat resistance, and crack resistance. It is also machinable with metallic carbide tipped tools. UTP WEARcore MnCr13-O is commonly used in a wide range of applications, including: Railway rails and crossovers Mill shaft drive ends Gyratory crusher mantles Repointing of shovel teeth Buffer layer for inter-particles crushers Crusher rollers Crusher hammers Asphal
