Frequently asked questions

Which hardfacing MIG wire do I need?

The correct hardfacing wire depends on the type of wear your component experiences, including abrasion, impact, metal-to-metal wear, erosion or a combination of these conditions.

What is hardfacing MIG wire?

Hardfacing MIG wire is a specialised filler wire used to rebuild worn components or apply a wear-resistant surface that extends the working life of equipment.

Why would I choose one hardfacing wire over another?

Different hardfacing alloys are designed for different wear mechanisms. Selecting the correct alloy ensures the deposited weld metal performs in the environment it was designed for.

What is the difference between abrasion-resistant and impact-resistant hardfacing wire?

Abrasion-resistant wires are designed to withstand wear from sand, minerals and aggregate, while impact-resistant wires are formulated to absorb repeated shock loading without cracking.

Can hardfacing wire rebuild worn components?

Yes. Many hardfacing wires are used to restore worn parts before applying a final wear-resistant layer, helping extend service life and reduce replacement costs.

What industries use hardfacing MIG wire?

Hardfacing MIG wire is widely used in quarrying, mining, agriculture, recycling, construction, cement production, steel processing and heavy engineering.

What components are commonly hardfaced?

Typical applications include buckets, excavator teeth, crusher parts, conveyors, augers, rollers, mixer blades, screw flights and other components exposed to heavy wear.

Do I need to prepare the component before hardfacing?

Yes. Proper cleaning, removal of damaged material and, where necessary, rebuilding worn areas helps produce a sound hardfaced surface and maximise service life.

Can I machine hardfacing after welding?

Some hardfacing alloys can be machined, while others become extremely hard and should be finished by grinding. The correct choice depends on the alloy selected and the application.

What questions should I ask before choosing a hardfacing MIG wire?

Before selecting a hardfacing wire, identify: What type of wear is occurring? Is it abrasion, impact, erosion or metal-to-metal wear? Is the component being rebuilt or protected? What is the parent material? What service life are you trying to achieve? Answering these questions will help you select the most suitable hardfacing alloy for the application.
