Stoody XHC

Stoody XHC is a solid‑core stick electrode with an extruded graphitic coating for high deposition rates and excellent weldability. It offers strong abrasion resistance while remaining non‑machinable.

Key Features

• Solid core electrode with graphitic coating containing alloying elements
• High deposition rate across 3.2 mm, 4.0 mm and 4.8 mm diameters
• Excellent resistance to sliding and grinding abrasion up to 1000 °F (538 °C)
• Bonds well to carbon, low alloy, and manganese steels

Specifications

• Welding Current: DC+
• Alloy Type: Primary Chromium Carbides in an Austenitic Matrix
• Typical Weld Metal Analysis (%): C 5.4, Mn 2.4, Si 1.3, Cr 24.0, Mo 0.5
• Deposition Data:
  • 3.2 mm → 100‑150 A (Full Range)
  • 4.0 mm → 125‑250 A (Full Range)
  • 4.8 mm → 150‑300 A (Full Range)

Applications

• Hardfacing and repair of wear‑prone surfaces
• Maintenance of carbon and low‑alloy steel equipment
• Extending service life of components exposed to abrasive environments
