The Wearshield Super Rail deposit work-hardens rapidly on impact without cracking — making it ideal for rail ends, crossing points, and manganese steel repair. The deposit only slightly distorts on impact and reduces carbon steel repair frequency by up to 50% compared to unprotected manganese rail components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"per161-tldr\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eKey takeaways\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Wearshield-SuperRail\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAlloy class:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hard Facing\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolarity:\u003c\/strong\u003e DC+\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePositions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flat, horizontal\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAvailable diameters:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\/16\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProcess:\u003c\/strong\u003e SMAW\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClassification: \u003cstrong\u003eWearshield-SuperRail\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProduct: Lincoln Wearshield® Super Rail™ (ED035352)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcess: SMAW (Stick)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBase material: Austenitic manganese steel (Hadfield-type)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolarity: DC+\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePositions: Flat and horizontal only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWork hardening: Significant — hardens rapidly under impact service\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHardfacing and repair of austenitic manganese alloy rail components including rail ends, rail joints, crossing points, and frog noses in railroad maintenance and railcar fabrication.
