The work is devoted to development of the method of restoration of worn press tools from 3Kh3M3F steel for extrusion of
non-ferrous alloys by mechanized hardfacing with self-shielded flux-cored wire. The advantages and disadvantages of different
classes of hardfacing materials are considered and use of 50Kh6V2GSMFA steel is proposed. In the case of hardfacing with selfshielded
flux-cored wire the alloying part of this steel provides a higher hardness at high working temperatures of pressing, due
to a complex hardening of the martensite matrix with carbides of tungsten, chromium and other elements, as well as additional
hardening by vanadium nitride. It allowed increasing the tool life. Moreover, alloying by chromium at the level of 5.5 – 6.0%
improved adhesion to the processed metal. Resistance to thermal erosion and thermal fatigue strength of the deposited layer was
increased by selection and optimization of gas-slag-forming components. Industrial trails of hardfaced steel 50Kh6V2GSMFA,
first applied for restoration and hardening of the hot pressing matrices from 3Kh3M3F steel, were conducted at LLC “ZCM”
(city of Bakhmut). Compared to new unsurfaced matrices, those restored by hardfacing demonstrated 2.4…2.5 times higher
durability, while working diameter drawdown after 5 pressing cycles decreased three times. Total cost of matrix restoration by
surfacing is 1.5 – 20 times lower than that of a new matrix from 3Kh3M3F steel. 19 Ref., 4 Fig.
