58FC-G-035-10 - Techniweld .035 Hardfacing MIG Wire 10lb Spool Gas Shielded

Extend Equipment Life with Techniweld Hardfacing Wire

Stop replacing expensive parts prematurely and start rebuilding them with the Techniweld 58FC-G Gas Shielded Hardfacing Wire. This 10lb spool of .035" wire is engineered for professional welders and fabricators who deal with heavy equipment repair. Whether you are reinforcing an excavator bucket, resurfacing a plow blade, or repairing a screw conveyor, this wire provides the armor your equipment needs to withstand the harshest abrasive environments. The "HF" in the name stands for Hard Facing, and this wire delivers exactly that—a tough, protective shell that resists grinding wear from soil, rock, and aggregate.

Superior Wear Resistance
The 58FC-G deposit creates a surface with a hardness of approximately 58 Rockwell C. This level of hardness is specifically targeted to combat sliding abrasion. Because it is a gas-shielded flux-cored wire, you get the best of both worlds: the fast deposition rates of flux core and the clean, smooth bead appearance provided by shielding gas. The slag system is designed to be easily removable, revealing a smooth bead that requires minimal post-weld cleanup. Note that due to its extreme hardness, the weld deposit cannot be machined with standard cutting tools and must be finished by grinding if a specific profile is required.

Application Versatility
The .035" diameter is particularly useful for general shop repairs where a massive 1/16" wire might be too hot or difficult to control on smaller parts. It runs on standard MIG equipment capable of flux-cored welding with gas. It is an excellent choice for agricultural implements, mining chutes, cement mixer blades, and shredder hammers. By maintaining a stock of Techniweld 58FC-G, you ensure that you can quickly address wear patterns before they compromise the structural integrity of your expensive machinery.

Recommended Settings & Tips:

• Use DCEP (Reverse Polarity).
• Clean the base metal of oil, grease, and heavy rust before welding.
• Preheat high-carbon steels to prevent underbead cracking.
• Avoid excessive layer buildup; use a buffer layer for deep repairs.
