in accordance with
ISO 9001:2000
Cert # 05-R0925 ALLOY DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATION;
4340 is a Chromium-molybdenum low alloy wire that will produce
a dense, heat-treatable deposit. This alloy is used to weld AISI/SAE 4340 and 4330 and
other heat-treatable alloys or base metals needing flame hardening. Preheat and inter-pass
recommended and may also need followed by post heat treating.
