UTP LEDURIT 61
rutile-basic coated hardfacing stick electrode
Classifications
DIN 8555 EN 14700 AWS A5.13
E 10-UM-60-GRZ EZ Fe14 ~ E FeCr-A 1
Characteristics and field of use
UTP LEDURIT 61 is suited for highly wear resistant claddings on parts subject to strong grinding
abrasion combined with medium impact, such as conveyor screws, scraper blades, digging teeth,
mixer wings, sand pumps. Also as a final layer on crusher jaws.
Welding properties
UTP LEDURIT 61 has excellent welding characteristics and a very easy slag removal. The
homogeneous and finely rippled seam surface does, for most applications, not require any
finishing by grinding.
Hardness of the pure weld deposit approx. 60 HRC
1 layer on steel with C = 0,15 % approx. 55 HRC
1 layer on high Mn-steel approx. 52 HRC

Welding instruction
Hold stick electrode as vertically as possible, keep a short arc. Preheating is in general not
necessary. On multipass-applications a cushion layer with UTP 630 is recommended in order to
prevent hardening cracks in the weld deposit. Redry stick electrodes that have got damp for
2h/300° C.
