Specifies requirements for welding consumables for build-up and wear resistance, and defines a classification and designation system based on the properties of the weld deposits, the three most important being chemical composition, microstructure and hardness. Relates these properties in a classification system laid out in a manner which allows ready selection of a suitable consumable for a specific application. Includes typical photomicrographs for alloy tests classified.
