Though not as common, hard surfacing can be done with the submerged arc welding process where only build-up is needed (hard surfacing alloys are generally not available for overlay).

Description
Summary:Though not as common, hard surfacing can be done with the submerged arc welding process where only build-up is needed (hard surfacing alloys are generally not available for overlay). One advantage to this process is that it is easily automated, making the rebuilding of larger parts more economical. The process also creates smooth, strong welds and requires minimal operator training.
