Welding Electrode MG CAST-1
MG CAST 1Basic-graphitic coated stick electrode for machinable cold welding of cast iron.
Weld metal on nickel basis Norm DIN 8573 E Ni – BG 1 AWS/ASME SFA – 5.15 E Ni -Cl
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS:
Specially formulated coating gives a pulsed arc for low temperature welding of cast irons. When properly applied the arc will penetrate surface skin and contaminants to produce a porosity free weld. The heat affected zone is not hardened and stress cracks are almost always avoided.
APPLICATIONS: Low temperature welding of cast iron in all positions. Repairs breaks and cracks in engine blocks, gear housings, and machine bases. Ideal for filling holes and building up worn or missing sections which must be machined to final dimension after welding. Also for joining cast iron to steel, iron, stainless steel, etc.
