Ratna Cast Ni

Classification
APPLICATIONS
  • Suitable to weld carbon steel to cast iron.
  • Repairs on cast iron castings.
  • Filling up casting defects.
  • Building up worn out surfaces.

description

A light coated electrode depositing pure nickel in weld metal to work on cold conditions without pre-heating the jobs. The nickel content in weld metal deposit allows to achieving a soft and tough weld. The tensile strength is good enough to match parent metals tensile strength. Deposits are machinable.
