HARDFACE BUF-S BUTTER LAYER 3.2MM 25KG S

HARDFACE BUF-S Butter Layer Welding Electrode 3.2mm – 25kg Pack

HARDFACE BUF-S Butter Layer 3.2mm is a premium hardfacing welding electrode specifically designed for butter layer applications prior to final hardfacing. Supplied in a 25kg industrial pack, it provides a tough, crack-resistant buffer layer that protects base material and improves adhesion of high-hardness wear layers.

This electrode is ideal for rebuilding and protecting components exposed to severe abrasion, impact, and metal-to-metal wear, particularly where alloy steels, carbon steels, or unknown base materials are involved.

Key Features & Benefits

• Excellent Butter Layer Properties
  Creates a tough, ductile buffer layer that reduces dilution and cracking when applying hardfacing alloys.

• Crack-Resistant Weld Metal
  Designed to absorb impact and thermal stresses, extending the service life of hardfaced components.

• Improved Hardfacing Adhesion
  Provides a stable foundation for subsequent high-hardness or wear-resistant weld deposits.

• Smooth, Stable Arc
  Easy slag removal and clean bead appearance, even in positional welding.

• Versatile Base Material Compatibility
  Suitable for carbon steels, low-alloy steels, and dissimilar or unknown steels.

Typical Applications

• Butter layers prior to hardfacing overlays

• Repair and rebuild of:

  • Crusher parts

  • Buckets and excavator components

  • Chutes, hoppers, and liners

  • Shafts, rollers, and wear plates

• Impact and abrasion-exposed industrial equipment
