Description

Cigweld WeldSkill Cast2Steel 3.2mm Electrode – 10pk

The Cigweld WeldSkill Cast2Steel 3.2mm Electrode – 10pk is a Nickel/Iron electrode specifically designed for repair and maintenance welding of Spheroidal Graphite (S.G.) irons, meehanites, austenitic cast irons, and grey cast irons. Its graphite-coated flux ensures a soft, stable arc with minimal spatter and penetration, making it ideal for critical repairs. With excellent tolerance to contaminants like oil and dirt, this electrode is perfect for challenging maintenance environments.

The machinable Nickel/Iron deposit provides the high strength required for S.G. irons and is compatible with cast iron to steel joints. For demanding applications requiring enhanced joint strength, Cast2Steel can be used for root and fill passes, followed by capping passes with Castcraft 100 to achieve a smoother surface finish.

Procedure for Welding Oil-Contaminated Cast Iron:

When welding oil-contaminated cast iron, increase the arc length to approximately 6mm to minimize porosity caused by oil. For heavily contaminated components, preheating the metal to 200°C will further improve weld quality by reducing porosity.

Key Features:

  • Maintenance welding for S.G. irons, austenitic, and grey cast irons
  • Joins cast iron to steel with high-strength, machinable deposits
  • Graphite-coated flux for stable arc performance with minimal spatter
  • Tolerant to oil and dirt contamination for challenging repairs
  • Easy start 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., austenitic, and grey cast irons
  • Joining cast iron to steel in industrial settings
  • Welding of oil-contaminated or dirty cast iron
  • Root and fill passes with Castcraft 100 for a smooth finish

The Cigweld WeldSkill Cast2Steel 3.2mm Electrode – 10pk offers high strength, machinability, and contaminant resistance, making it ideal for industrial maintenance and repair work. Whether you’re joining cast iron to steel or working on heavily contaminated materials, this electrode ensures consistent, reliable welds every time.
