Industry-Leading Consistency
Consistency is critical to the strength and appearance of every weld. Lincoln quality
starts with superior materials – incoming raw steel slated for use in consumables is
analyzed for chemical composition, checking more than 20 different elements before
being cleared for production. The result is a line of weld consumables that are reliably
uniform in diameter and chemical composition. In fact, Lincoln standards are
considerably more restrictive than AWS requirements.
Better Manufacturing Systems

Lincoln employs the most technically advanced and ISO

carefully monitored manufacturing and quality control 9001:2000

systems in the welding industry. The result is a line of
weld consumables that are reliably uniform.

TEST RESULTS
Test results for mechanical properties, deposit or electrode composition and diffusible hydrogen levels
were obtained from a weld produced and tested according to prescribed standards, and should not
be assumed to be the expected results in a particular application or weldment. Actual results will vary
depending on many factors, including, but not limited to, weld procedure, plate chemistry and temperature,
weldment design and fabrication methods. Users are cautioned to confirm by qualification testing, or
other appropriate means, the suitability of any welding consumable and procedure before use in the
intended application.

However, on edges and corners, fast-moving stringer beads or very narrow weaved beads are usually preferred. The
exact width and thickness of the bead will depend on the mass of the piece being welded.
stainless & nickel

Work-hardened base or weld metal should be removed before applying Wearshield® BU, since such areas are more
prone to embrittlement and possible cracking. The part should be preheated to at least 21°C (70°F). Preheating above
40°C (100°F) is usually not required. Preheating depends largely on the base metal composition. On large, complex, or
restrained parts, a preheat of 150°- 260°C (300°- 500°F) may be necessary.

NOTE: In welding with Wearshield® MI, a short arc or a long arc may be used. The short arc will give greater build-up
with each bead. The long arc is ideal for depositing thin layers, though alloy recovery may be reduced. In depositing
Wearshield® MI, preheat and interpass temperatures of 200°C (400°F) minimum are helpful, as well as limiting deposit
to two layers, to reduce cracking and avoid chipping and fragmentation. Weld deposit cannot be cut with oxy-fuel
process. Plasma arc and air-carbon arc processes can cut or gouge the weld deposit successfully. Grinding is usually

best if the deposit needs to be shaped.

NOTE: Work-hardened base metal or previously deposited weld metal should be ground off before applying a new
deposit, since such areas are more prone to embrittlement and possible cracking. Areas that cannot be easily indented
with a center punch should be removed.
When joining manganese steel, the joint should be prepared for 100% penetration. A cutting torch may be used to bevel
the edges of the plate which can crack if care is not taken to prevent overheating the base metal.
stainless & nickel

Preheat is not necessary unless work is below room temperature, or if the part is unusually massive or complex in
design. In such cases, heating the piece to about room temperature, or 38° - 66°C (100° - 150°F) at the most, should
be sufficient.
As with all austenitic manganese welding products, interpass temperatures should be limited to 260ºC (500ºF)
maximum. A stringer bead, or at most, a slight weave is recommended to limit heat build-up. Excessive heat build-up
causes manganese carbide precipitation which damages the toughness of austenitic manganese.

NOTE: In welding with Wearshield® 15CrMn, a short arc is preferred. The electrode can easily be dragged without fear
of snuffing out the arc. For situations involving severe impact and abrasion, a build-up of Wearshield® 15CrMn capped
with a single layer of Wearshield® 60 or Lincore® 60-O can provide excellent service. In depositing Wearshield® 15CrMn
on itself or on austenitic manganese steel, preheat is generally unnecessary unless the metal is below 16°C (60°F).
However, highly hardenable carbon or low alloy steel base metals may require preheat in the 150°C - 204°C
stainless & nickel

(300° - 400°F) range to avoid heat affected zone cracking.
Wearshield® 15CrMn deposits work harden rapidly, which makes them difficult to machine. Best results are obtained
with carbide or ceramic tool bits. Avoid superficial cuts, and maintain a sharp cutting edge. Grinding can also be done
successfully. Because of the high chromium content, Wearshield®15CrMn cannot be cut with oxy-fuel processes.
Plasma arc and air carbon arc processes can cut or gouge the weld deposit successfully. Limit interpass temperature
to 260°C (500°F) to avoid embrittlement.

NOTE: Weld Preparation Remove all damaged and foreign material by air-carbon arc gouging or grinding. Make sure
all defective metal is removed. In the event hairline cracks remain at flangeway depth, use a 3.2mm (1/8 in) E308
submerged arc
stainless electrode, such as Blue Max® or Red Baron® 308L AC-DC to tie up these cracks. This will avoid hot cracking
during the build-up process. Apply only thin layers and do not build-up with E308 stainless. This is for emergency
situations where no other alternative is available to repair flangeway cracks.
Use DC+ to avoid excessive spatter. When possible, weld at alternate locations (skip weld) to avoid overheating of metal
in a localized area. Do not exceed interpass temperature of 260°C (500°F). Use a temperature marker 13 mm (1/2 in)
from the welded area at frequent intervals to ensure that interpass temperature does not exceed 260°C (500°F).
Use a short arc and a stringer bead width of 10 to 13 mm (3/8 to 1/2 in).
Finish the casting by grinding to a safe contour. Leave enough weld metal during the welding process to allow a level
and even contour after grinding. Make sure all areas are finished and the casting has no further visible defects. Check
with straight edge so that the casting is free of low spots. As with all austenitic manganese welding products,
stainless & nickel

interpass temperatures should be limited to 260°C (500°F) maximum. A stringer bead, or at most, a slight weave is
recommended to limit heat build-up. Excessive heat build-up causes manganese carbide precipitation which damages
the toughness of austenitic manganese.

NOTE: Wearshield® ABR can be forged readily without affecting its mechanical properties. As deposited, Wearshield®
ABR weld metal is not machinable, although the deposit can be shaped by grinding.
submerged arc
To obtain a deposit that is machinable with carbide tools, heat to about 749ºC (1380ºF) and hold for one hour per inch
of thickness.
Air cool to room temperature.
For maximum machinability, heat to 870° - 900°C (1600° - 1650°F) and hold for one hour per inch of thickness.
Furnace cool to 650°C (1200°F) at a rate not exceeding 10°C (50°F) per hour, and air or furnace cool to room
temperature. Variation in welding procedures will have little affect on abrasion resistance.
The abrasion resistance can be restored by heating to about 790°C (1450°F), quenching and tempering at 200°C
(400°F).

NOTE: Wearshield® 44 electrodes form a deep cup, which permits light dragging of the electrode during welding. The
arc is steady with little spatter in the DC+ mode. During AC welding, the arc is also steady, but the usable current range
submerged arc
is reduced, and the melt-off rates are reduced at any current. Since the amount of dilution does not affect the
microstructure, the impact properties and abrasion resistance will be similar from the first layer to the last.
On cast irons, Wearshield® 44 deposits usually check crack. These check cracks should be closely spaced to prevent
spalling. This is obtained by using stringer beads.

NOTE: Wearshield® ME is a heavily coated electrode which forms a deep cup that permits light dragging of the stick
during welding. Deposits generally check crack except for single layers on thin base metal. Stringer beads produce a
submerged arc
consistent crack spacing of about 13-25 mm (1/2-1 in).
Wide weaves may produce very widely spaced check cracks which can lead to deposit spalling in multiple layers.
Weaving is not recommended. For maximum spalling resistance on carbon and low alloy steels, especially in multiple
layers, apply a butter layer of Wearshield® 15CrMn, Lincore® 15CrMn or an austenitic stainless steel electrode such as
Blue Max® 309/309L AC-DC, before applying Wearshield® ME.

NOTE: The deposit is not machinable or forgeable. Cooling rate does not significantly influence abrasion resistance.

submerged arc
If more than two-layer build-up is required, use Wearshield® 15CrMn (preferred), Wearshield® BU or Wearshield®
BU30 for the preliminary layer or layers under Wearshield® 60. On manganese steel, use Wearshield® Mangjet® or
Wearshield® 15CrMn as build-up. Preheat is not generally necessary except to be sure that work is in room temperature
range 25° - 45ºC (75° - 100ºF). However, preheat of 120° - 200ºC (250° - 400ºF) may be necessary to prevent heat
affected zone cracking on high carbon steel or low alloy steel base metals. If more than two layers must be used, or if
cross checks must be eliminated, preheat to 650ºC (1200ºF).
Prolonged or repeated heating of manganese steel base metal over 260ºC (500ºF) can cause embrittlement and
spalling. Avoid base metal embrittlement by:
• Limiting the temperature 260ºC (500ºF) at distances of 13 mm (1/2 in) away from the weld.
• Minimizing the time at elevated temperatures.
stainless & nickel

The correct welding technique is a vertical electrode with a 3.2 - 4.8 mm (1/8 - 3/16 in) arc length. The large ball on
the end of the electrode should never touch the puddle. This technique will give a smooth transfer, low spatter and
smooth bead.

as compared to AC. Deposit is not slag covered; only a few slag islands, which are easily removed.
submerged arc
Under extremely abrasive conditions or abrasion at high temperatures, two layers of Wearshield® 70 will significantly
out-perform deposits of a standard primary chromium carbide electrode, such as Wearshield® 60. However, under low
stress abrasion conditions, two layers of Wearshield® 70 or Wearshield® 60 will give similar results. But one layer of
Wearshield® 70 will out-perform one layer of Wearshield® 60.
Both stringer and weave welding techniques will result in closely spaced check cracks. A stringer or narrow weave
produces more closely spaced check cracks and provides excellent resistance to spalling.
Spalling resistance is enhanced when the deposit, immediately under the Wearshield® 70 deposit, is austenitic such as
Lincore® M. For service at temperatures below 260ºC (500ºF), austenitic manganese steel base metal or weld build-up
is very suitable. For a single layer of build-up on carbon or low alloy steel, Wearshield® 15CrMn is preferred over the
lower alloyed Wearshield® Mangjet®, because of the austenite stability. For service at higher temperatures, austenitic
stainless & nickel

manganese is generally not advisable for build-up due to its embrittlement at high temperatures. An austenitic stainless
steel, such as type 309 or 310, provide a better service as a build-up under Wearshield® 70.

necessary. After welding, very slow cooling to 121°C (250°F) is usually required. This can be followed by post-weld
submerged arc
heat treating at 538° - 593°C (1000° - 1100°F) to develop maximum hardness.

NOTE: Remove all damaged and foreign material by the air-carbon arc gouging process and grinding. Make sure all
defective metal is removed. In the event hairline cracks remain at flangeway depth, use a 1/8 in diameter E308
stainless product, such as Blue Max® or Red Baron® 308L AC-DC to tie up these cracks and avoid hot cracking during
the buildup process. Use only light amounts and do not build-up with E308 stainless. It is for use in emergency
situations where no other alternative is available to repair flangeway cracks. As with all austenitic manganese welding
products, interpass temperatures should be limited to 260°C (500°F) maximum. A stringer bead, or at most, a slight
stainless & nickel
weave is recommended to limit heat build-up. Excessive heat build-up causes manganese carbide precipitation which
damages the toughness of austenitic manganese.

60-0 deposit cross cracks (commonly called cross-checking) on cooling. This is desirable, since cross-cracking of the
deposit relieves cooling stresses and prevents spalling.

Hardfacing
Cross Checking

Special Precautions
Special precautions should be taken with any build-up or hardfacing product on applications that are
inherently crack sensitive, such as high carbon or alloy steels, previously hardfaced parts, highly
stressed parts, and work hardened parts. The hardfacing of heavy cylinders, massive parts and parts
having complex shapes are all examples of applications exhibiting high internal stresses that may
result in delayed cracking.
These applications may require one or more of the following:
• Higher preheat temperatures
• Higher interpass temperatures
• Controlled slow cooling between passes and/or layers

• Stress relieving
• Minimizing layer thickness

Agency Approvals
Consumables Qualifications Guide

The notes and codes listed below are also repeated throughout the catalog where applicable.
• American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) approvals are issued subject to the Bureau’s Rule requirement
for Materials and Welding Part 2. Tests are conducted in the company’s plant, under supervision of an
ABS surveyor to determine if electrodes conform to ABS grades or AWS specifications previously judged
satisfactory by ABS for welding vessels. The Bureau publishes a list of approved electrodes giving their
class and approved operating positions for each size. Sometimes, where there is no approved
specification, approval may be given on the basis that each individual shipyard or contractor will
qualify the procedure and electrode subject to Part 2, Section 3, paragraph 2/3C.3.2.c.
• American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has issued specifications covering construction
of nuclear facilities. Each lot of welding consumables to be used must be individually tested to ASME
APPEndix
SFA specifications.
• American Welding Society (AWS) specifications and classifications are established by the Society
to provide standards for different types of electrodes throughout the industry. AWS does not test or
approve any electrodes. The manufacturer certifies that their electrode conforms to a certain class.
• Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB) approvals are based on tests witnessed by a CWB representative.
Approvals listed in this booklet are for products manufactured in the USA. Products manufactured in
Canada are approved separately. In general, CWB specifications are similar to AWS specifications.
Copies of approvals are maintained in Cleveland and are available upon request.
• Lloyd’s Register (LR), Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Germanischer Lloyd (GL), Bureau Veritas (BV),
PAckAging
Controlas, and Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (NKK) issue approvals for electrodes used worldwide in shipbuilding,
offshore structures and pressure vessels. Products approved under the rules of these classification
societies require annual requalification under the supervision of their surveyors.
• TÜV (TUV) is a German agency very similar to ASME. Projects manufactured under TUV rules must be
welded with consumable approved by TUV. Initial approvals are obtained based on testing completed
under TUV supervision. Approvals are maintained subject to Quality Assurance audits completed every
two years.
• Deutche Bahn (DB) is the approval agency for German railroads. Approvals are based on tests specified
by DB, and witnessed by an authorized third party.

Push/Pull Systems
For Welding and Fabrication Facilities
Fume and metal particulate from metalworking operations such
as welding, plasma cutting, arc gouging and grinding can
build-up as a layer in the air of a facility. Eventually, the
particulate may settle back to the floor. The Push/Pull System
can remove this layer in a controlled manner, filter it and
circulate the filtered air back into the facility.

High Vacuum Central Systems
For Welding, Cutting and Grinding
High vacuum, low volume central systems are a cost effective
choice. These systems use a central turbine and filter, and supply
suction throughout the plant. Since the airflow is one-tenth the
volume of low vacuum systems, and the vacuum pressure are ten
time higher, these systems use smaller duct work and less CFM.
Header ducts are frequently one size through the whole system.

For Schools and Industry

Lincoln Electric offers low vacuum, high volume exhaust systems
for source capture applications. They are an ideal solution to
address welding fume removal in educational environments
and manufacturing plants that require multiple station drops.

The operation of welding fume control equipment is affected by various factors

including proper use and positioning of the equipment, maintenance of the equipment
and the specific welding procedure and application involved. Worker exposure level
should be checked upon installation and periodically thereafter to be certain it is
within applicable OSHA PEL and ACGIH TLV limits.

Warranty Commitment
You have a right to expect that the welding and cutting equipment,
OL
N ELEC
T
electrode and flux you purchase will be free of defects in
C RI
IN C workmanship and material. Standing behind the high quality of our
L
products, Lincoln Electric’s warranty commitment to its customers

leads the industry in breadth and scope.
For example, our limited warranty extends to 7 Years on man of
our main power rectifiers. With few exceptions, all industrial
welders and power sources carry a full 3 Year Lincoln warranty.
Electrode, wire and flux are warranted for 1 full Year, as are
environmental systems.
Extended Warranty Available

packaging
If you choose, you can extend the duration of the Lincoln Warranty
on your Lincoln welder or power source by two years with the
Lincoln Electric Extended Warranty. Available only in the United
States and Canada. Visit our web site for more information.
Quality Systems
Choose welding suppliers wisely… look for third party certifications
on the companies and products you select. In fact, some of your
ISO projects or customers may require it. Many Lincoln manufacturing
9001:2000 sites have been inspected and registered to the world’s ISO
appendix
14001:2004 standards. In fact, Lincoln Electric was the first welding

manufacturer to be registered to the tough ISO 9001 and 14001
standards.
However, there’s more. Equipment destined for harsh
environments is often tested to IP21, IP23 and IP23S standards.
Products intended for the Canadian market meet stringent CSA
(Canadian Standards Association) standards. Electrode is tested
to comply with AWS (American Welding Society) and often ASME
Boiler Pressure codes, ABS (American Bureau of Shipping),
CWB/CSA (Canadian Welding Bureau) and MIL qualifications.
