ToolTectic 6SH
An air hardening tool steel electrode for repairing worn tools and dies caused by service impact and scale abrasion.
A coated Electrode formulated to weld A-series tool steels and particularly Grade A-2. This grade of electrodes is an air-hardening with superior non-deforming properties. Weld deposits show minimum heat crazing and are tolerant of high and in-service quencing operations. Deposits maintain shape and tolerance dimensions during service. Similar to Grade A-2 and also known as cold-work tool steel.
