Description

Cigweld WeldSkill Cast2Steel 3.2mm Electrode – 1kg

The Cigweld WeldSkill Cast2Steel 3.2mm Electrode – 1kg is a high-strength Nickel/Iron electrode designed specifically for the repair and maintenance of Spheroidal Graphite (S.G.) irons, austenitic cast irons, meehanites, and grey cast irons. With a graphite-coated flux, this electrode ensures a soft, stable arc with minimal spatter and excellent tolerance to contaminants like oil and dirt. This makes it ideal for industrial maintenance applications where precise welding is essential.

The ductile Nickel/Iron weld deposit is machinable and provides the necessary strength for S.G. irons. When higher joint strength is needed, Cast2Steel can be used for root and fill passes, followed by capping passes with Castcraft 100 to create a smoother surface finish.

Procedure for Welding Oil-Contaminated Cast Iron:

For oil-impregnated cast iron, increasing the arc length to 6mm helps reduce porosity caused by the oil. For heavily contaminated components, preheating the cast iron to 200°C further reduces porosity, ensuring a stronger, more reliable weld.

Key Features:

  • Designed for maintenance welding of S.G., austenitic, and grey cast irons
  • Joins cast iron to steel with a high-strength Nickel/Iron weld deposit
  • Graphite-coated flux ensures stable arc performance with minimal spatter
  • Tolerant to contaminants like oil and dirt for challenging repair jobs
  • Machinable welds with high tensile strength for critical repairs
  • Easy starting and smooth operation on 240V portable welding machines

Specifications:

  • Core Wire Composition: 55% Nickel, 45% Iron
  • Tensile Strength: 500 MPa
  • Hardness: 220 HV30
  • Standard Compliance: AWS/ASME-SFA A5.15 (ENiFe-CI)

Applications:

  • Repair and maintenance of S.G. irons, meehanites, and grey cast irons
  • Joining cast iron to steel for industrial applications
  • Welding of oil-contaminated or dirty cast iron
  • Root and fill passes with Castcraft 100 for smoother surface finishes

The Cigweld WeldSkill Cast2Steel 3.2mm Electrode – 1kg provides a reliable, high-performance solution for maintenance professionals working with a variety of cast irons and steel. With its machinable weld deposits, contaminant tolerance, and easy operation, it ensures dependable results in even the most challenging conditions.
