I answered your question in the other forum, at:

Engine - Stellite Welding

Following is the answer to a question posed in the other forum by Vincent Brake: Stellite 6 is the one to use for wear resistance. I used it on the ends of the new pushrods I made for my 1928 Ariel and they showed no sign of wear at the end of the 3000-mile Cannonball. The case hardening broke...

I wanted to Stellite my clutch arm and attendant push rod and master machinist told me he

Hi Carl, as I posted on the New forum, Gary Robinson used Stellite 1 on both cams and followers for over 20 years including my special high lift race cams. You can't get more arduous conditions than this. Has anyone worn out a set of his cams recently?
Cheers
Roy the racer
