Despite a large number of studies in the field of assessing the causes of the formation of hot and cold cracks during surfacing of wear-resistant alloys, today the issues of working out the use of economically alloyed wear-resistant materials and the technique of their surfacing remain relevant. Goal: The purpose of this work is to study the effect of the structure and phase composition on the wear resistance of economically alloyed metastable and secondary hardening steels of the Cr-Mn-Ti system, as well as with additional alloying with Mo, B, V. Mechanized surfacing was carried out with flux cored wires AN-22 and AN-20 with the supply of a de-energized additive to the head of the weld pool, which reduces the content of sulfur and phosphorus, the specific consumption of electricity and increases the assimilation of alloying elements and the relative mass of the flux. Cladding by manual arc welding was carried out with coated electrodes with the addition of a depleted CaF2-coated flux-cored wire filler. When surfacing with a de-energized additive, the ratio of the filler to the main electrode, the relative mass was determined by β = m1 / m2 (m1, m2 are the mass of the filler and the electrode rod, respectively). Submerged arc surfacing was carried out in the following modes: IN = 300 ... 350 A, UD = 26 ... 30 V, q = 6 ... 10 kJ / cm, with manual surfacing - IN = 180 ... 220 A, UD = 25 ... Results: The studies carried out confirm the possibility of the formation of a “white band” both in alloys with a high concentration of austenitizing elements (Mn, C, Ni) and when alloying carbide-forming elements with a relatively low affinity for carbon (V, Mo). The indicators of resistance to cracking (КС, j-integral, δС), and, consequently, resistance to wear of secondary hardening steels are higher than those of metastable and tool steels.
