SMAW stick electrode, nickel base

Description
Basic coated nickel base electrode for welding of similar alloyed Ni base steel grades,
e.g.N10276, 2.4819, NiMo16Cr15 W as well as for joining these grades with low alloyed and
stainless steels. Also suitable for surfacing on low-alloyed steels. It is employed primarily for
welding components in plants for chemical processes with highly corrosive media, but also for
surfacing press tools, punches etc. which operate at high temperatures. In addition to its excep-
tional resistance to contaminated mineral acids, chlorine-contaminated media, and chloride
containing media, it resists strong oxidisers such as ferric and cupric chlorides and is one of the
few materials which will resist wet chlorine gas. The electrode can be welded in all positions
except vertical-down. Stable arc, easy slag removal.
For avoidance of intermetallic precipitation the electrode should be welded with lowest possi-
ble heat input and minimum interpass temperature.
