ABSTRACT:
A hard-facing deposit of weld metal in the form of parallel, spaced-apart tracks extends along the external bottom wall of a railroad coupler shank for engagement with the working face surface of a coupler carrier. The tracks of weld metal are arranged longitudinally within the shank area located, in part, between the horn line and connector opening in the coupler shank. The weld metal is usually 1/4-inch or less in thickness, 1-inch wide with a 1-inch space between the track deposits of weld metal.
