QuFe53 Rod – Laser Welding Wire Sealing Faces 1.4122 / ER430 mod. – 47–52 HRC, Valves

QuFe53 Rod – Laser Welding Wire Sealing Faces 1.4122 / ER430 mod. – 47–52 HRC, Valves

QuFe53 is the hardest martensitic Cr wire in the quada range: 1.4122 · ER430 mod. · 17 % chromium · 47–52 HRC.

Its classic use is the sealing faces of gas, water and steam valves — wherever hardness and corrosion resistance are needed at once, up to 450 °C. With 0.40 % carbon, however, the wire is crack-sensitive: preheating to 200–300 °C is not a recommendation but a requirement.

Recommended base materials

  • 1.4122 — identical-type
  • Other identical-type 17 % chromium steels and cast steel grades
  • Sealing faces on unalloyed steels (build-up)

Typical applications

  • Sealing faces of gas, water and steam valves
  • Valve seats and shut-off elements up to 450 °C
  • Hard, corrosion-resistant functional surfaces
  • Repairs on 17 % Cr steels

Properties and advantages

  • 47–52 HRC — the hardest deposit of the QuMed range
  • Identical-type to 1.4122 — same behaviour in heat treatment and finishing
  • Stainless, for sealing faces in contact with media
  • Weld metal after heat treatment (760 °C / 2 h): Re 550 MPa · Rm 750 MPa · A 12 %

Rod form advantage: Ideal for manual build-up welding with constant wire feed — also on sealing edges that are hard to access.

Rod form: Rod lengths 1000 mm and 333 mm, Ø 0,2 mm – 0,8 mm.
