Stoody Acetylene Tube Borium - Bare

Acetylene Tube Borium is manufactured by metering crushed tungsten carbide particles of controlled mesh size into steel tubes. Borium is available in a variety of particle sizes; fine mesh sizes increase wear resistance, coarse sizes improve cutting efficiency. Borium deposits absorb more impact than the finer Borod overlays
because more matrix is exposed.

Welding Procedures/Characteristics:

For ATB, adjust excess acetylene flame 3x length of inner core. Use torch tip size larger than normally used to weld same diameter mild steel rod. Sweat deposits to parent metal with minimum dilution. Limit to one layer. Maximum working temperature is 900°F (482°C).
