I have a small part that needs build up.

The part is composed of (see below) and is Brass. The face is worn Image and I need help deciding a filler to build it up with then machine. The part is subjected to wear fast. I was looking at Aluminum Bronze but I am not sure about its strength capabilities holding up. The Brass is hardness 66-67 HRC. The part that this brass part is fixed in is stainless steal. Any inputs on ease of TIG and choosing a filler would be appreciated.

Cu 67.9-69%
Zn 19.0-19.8%
Mn 4.80-5.00%
Fe 2.40-2.70%

Hey mate, Have a look here, There is a wide range of fillers. You have to sift through the different types to find your specific one though.
