MONELWELD is a versatile electrode with monel core wire for cold-welding of grey cast iron and joining cast iron to steel. The electrode produces crack free and porosity free machinable weld which bonds easily and strongly with the cast iron. The electrode displays a soft and steady arc which is easy to strike and restrike and has an ability to operate on low currents. Typical Weld Metal Hardness: 140-165 BHN
Identification:Name Printed
Applications:MONELWELD is excellent for welding cast iron where the best colour match is required. The electrode is ideal for welding machine bases, engine blocks, gears, pumps, joining of broken cast iron parts and for repairing defects in cast iron foundry. etc.
Welding directions:MONELWELD is very easy to weld in all positions on both AC as well as on DC (+). To avoid shrinkage stresses during cooling, only short runs should be welded at a time so that the work piece is not heated more than necessary. Peen the weld bead while warm to avoid the risk of cracking.
