UTP LEDURIT 60
Rutile-coated high-efficiency stick electrode for
highly wear-resistant claddings against mineral abrasion
Classifications
DIN 8555 EN 14700
E 10-UM-60-GRZ E Fe14
Characteristics and field of use
UTP LEDURIT 60 is universally applicable on parts predominantly subject to grinding abrasion
combined with light impact, such as conveyor screws, digging teeth, sand pumps and mixer wings.
It is also suited as a final layer on tough-hard deposits (UTP DUR 600) or high Mn-steel (UTP
BMC).
UTP LEDURIT 60 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 metal: approx. 60 HRC
1st layer on steel with C = 0.15%: approx. 55 HRC
1st layer on high Mn-steel: approx. 52 HRC

Welding instruction
Keep an angle of 80-90° between plate and electrode, and keep a short arc. Preheating is in
general not necessary. On multipass-welds, a cushion layer with UTP 630 is recommended to
prevent hardening cracks in the weld deposit. Re-dry damp stick electrodes for 2 hours / 300°C.
