Metco 8101 is a wire product with a composition similar to Stellite 6 that can be applied using arc welding processes such as GMAW and GTAW. Choose Metco 8101 for all-around wear and corrosion resistance or when good impact, cavitation or galling resistance is needed. It resists chemical attack over a wide temperature range, including oxidizing acids and saline environments. It can be used when a hard surface is needed up to 500 °C (930 °F).
