Abstract
Hardox 400 steel is currently being used as wear resistant material in extremely high abrasion wear applications. Owing to extremely high hardness and strength, welding remains a serious concern for these steels. Thus the aim of this work is to achieve the matching weld metal strength and toughness for 20 mm thick Hardox 400 steel plates by fabricating three shielded metal arc welded joints using three ferritic filler electrodes (viz. E8018, E9018 and E11018). Results revealed that the maximum joint efficiency and impact toughness of the welded joint was achieved through E11018 electrode, followed by E9018 and E8018 electrodes.
