OVERVIEW

Restore and Protect Your Heavy Equipment

When your heavy equipment takes a beating from rocks, sand, and dirt, you need a welding wire that fights back. The Lincoln Electric Lincore® 60-G is a .045" metal-cored hardfacing wire built to extend the life of your buckets, blades, and augers. If you are working on farm implements, mining gear, or construction machinery, this wire lays down a layer of chromium carbide that acts like armor against severe abrasion.

Welders appreciate the Lincore 60-G for its smooth runnability. Because it is a metal-cored wire used with shielding gas, you get a stable arc and high deposition rates similar to spray transfer, without the heavy slag cleanup associated with some flux-cored wires. This means you can get the job done faster and get the equipment back in the dirt where it belongs. It is designed to handle moderate impact, but its real superpower is resisting the grinding wear of metal sliding against earth.

Application Tips: This wire is powerful, but it has rules. Do not stack more than two layers. The deposit is extremely hard, and piling it too high can cause the weld to crack or pop off. It is perfect for that final protective cap on worn parts. You can run it on carbon steel, stainless, or even cast iron parts. Whether you are fixing a worn-out plowshare or reinforcing the lip of an excavator bucket, Lincore 60-G gives you a professional, long-lasting wear surface.

This 25 lb spool is sized right for shop use or field trucks equipped with wire feeders. It handles high heat well, maintaining its hardness even up to 1300°F, so it won't soften up when the friction gets intense. Equip your welder with Lincore 60-G and stop replacing expensive parts—rebuild them stronger than before.

FAQ

Lincore 60-G is a gas-shielded metal-cored wire (GMAW-C). It typically requires a shielding gas blend, such as Argon/CO2 or 100% CO2, depending on the specific welding parameters and desired arc characteristics.

The deposit is limited to a maximum of two layers. Applying more than two layers can result in cracking or spalling due to the high hardness and internal stresses of the chromium carbide alloy.

This wire is designed primarily for severe metal-to-earth abrasion with moderate impact resistance.

Yes, Lincore 60-G can be used on cast irons, as well as carbon, low alloy, manganese, and stainless steels.

The weld deposit can withstand temperatures up to 704°C (1300°F) without losing its abrasion-resistant properties.

This is a metal-cored wire. It contains a tubular metal sheath filled with metallic powders and alloys, offering higher deposition efficiency than solid wire.

This specific product is .045" (1.1 mm) in diameter.

It is ideal for augers, bucket lips, loaders, farming tools, and mining equipment that face heavy abrasion.
