Lincoln Electric Expands Hardfacing
Consumables Product Line
New products and smaller, shop-friendly
packaging improves user experience
Lincoln Electric® aims to ‘take the hard out of
hardfacing’ with a current expansion of the
company’s hardfacing consumables product
line, both with new Lincore® flux-cored wires
and with new small shop-friendly packaging.
This staggered launch includes a number of new
and existing Lincore hardfacing wires on 10 lb (15
kg) spools in 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) diameter. These
changes deliver a convenient and lower priced
package for sale in authorized distributor stores.
Denise Harpster, Lincoln Electric product manager,
hardfacing said, “Our hardfacing team is focused
on delivering a full product offering for a wide
variety of hardfacing applications, including the
demand for smaller diameters and packaging
that are just right for small shop maintenance
and repair projects. And, we are especially
excited about the opportunity to create custom
formulations that allow customers to obtain new
productivity, quality or cost-saving advantages in
their operations.”
Three new Lincore hardfacing wires are
launching:
Lincore 70-G – Severe abrasion metal-cored wire
with up to two times more wear than most chrome
carbide or complex carbide alloys, especially for
wet abrasion applications
Lincore 57-G – General abrasion and impact
metal-cored wire with a broad range of
applications, including metal-to-metal wear
with moderate impact or mining, agricultural or
shredding equipment.
