Cast Iron Ni-Fe Welding Electrode
NI-ROD 55 Welding Electrode is used for shielded-metal-arc welding of gray, ductile, malleable, and Ni-Resist cast irons. It is also used for welding cast irons to various wrought materials, including carbon steels, low-alloy steels, and nickel alloys. The electrode is especially useful for welding heavy sections and high-phosphorus irons.
The electrodes provide excellent operability for groove and fillet welding in the downhand position and the smaller diameter electrodes are also suitable for all position welding. Power supply: direct current, electrode positive, or alternating current.
