Stoody 964 AP-G is a gas shielded, flux cored, all position, general purpose, hardfacing wire. The deposit is a specially formulated wear resistant alloy which produces a uniform distribution of small primary carbides in a martensitic matrix. The small carbides provide greatly improved wear resistance over martensitic steel, many tool steels, and some conventional chromium carbide alloys. 964 AP-G possesses excellent resistance to impact and plastic deformation. Deposits are crack free on carbon 300 stainless and manganese steels. Other base metals should be preheated and post heated appropriately. The material is characterized by a high hardness and excellent wear resistance. 964 AP-G is recommended for parts where cross checking is undesirable. 964 AP-G offers improved weldability over chromium carbide and many other tool steel welding wires.
