Ni99 - 3.2mm Stick Electrodes - 1KG Pack Cast Iron

Hampdon Industrial stocks the premium range of Taurus Welding Electrodes. The ENi99 is a 99% Nickel electrode. The higher nickel content makes this electrode exceptionally stronger and more expensive than its 55% equivalent. Due to its hardness, consideration must be given when the casting is to be machined after welding. Repairs made with ENi99 electrodes are often single pass welds and works best on castings with low or medium phosphorous contents.

Features:

• 3.2mm thickness diameter
• 300mm length
• 1kgs weight
• 36 Sticks Approximate
• Stick code – ENI 402 (Ni)
• Industrial Quality
• For Storage & Re-Drying Information: It can be dried maximum 5 times. It has to be dried at 150°C for 1 hour.

Properties and Applications:

Electrode having a pure nickel core wire for welding cast iron without or with low preheating (max. 300°C). Suitable for welding cast iron with lamellar graphite, white and black heart malleable and nodular cast iron. Used also for repair welding of cracked cast iron parts or joining components made of steel, copper or nickel materials to cast irons. Weld metal is machinable. Provides easy arc striking and restriking, stable arc and smooth bead surface. Weld short beads, about 30 to 50 mm long. In order to reduce weld residual stresses, hammer-peen welds slightly before cooling. Preferably used with DCEP but possible to use also with AC.

Welding Position Applications:

• PA - Flat Position: Welding is performed from the upper side of the joint, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
• PB - Horizontal Position: The welding is done on the horizontal surface, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
• PC - Vertical Position: Welding is carried out on the vertical surface, and the axis of the weld is approximately vertical.
• PD - Overhead Position: Welding is performed from the underside of the joint, and the axis of the weld is approximately horizontal.
• PE - Horizontal/Vertical Position: This position is a combination of horizontal and vertical welding. The joint can be both in the horizontal and vertical planes.
• PF - 4G Position: This is a groove weld performed on the outside surface of a pipe or cylinder in a fixed vertical.
