SAITRON 800 NM
Description:
SAITRON 800 NM is a non machinable low heat input electrode for welding of cast iron. It is best choices for surface preparation of cast iron to give subsequent layers with Nickel and Ferro-Nickel electrode. Electrode burning with strong arc force and deposit weld of spray type is very much useful to seal the cast iron.
Applications:
It is highly suitable for surface preparation of cast iron to give subsequent layers with Nickel and Ferro-Nickel electrode. It is used to seal foundry defects etc. weld deposit is non-machinable.
Note on Usage:
Before welding remove oil and grease. Clean weld area by grinding to remove cracks or worn fatigued surface of components. Use electrode on AC/DC+ at the lowest amps. Deposit short, stringer beads with short arc. Electrode can be weaved 1.5 to 2 times its diameter. Deposit in short weld beads about 25mm to 50mm with frequent interruptions to allow cooling to take place. Peen deposits while hot, after each pass, to limit the internal stresses of the base metal. Preheat is usually not necessary unless very heavy sections are involved. In some cases preheating to 3000C and slow cooling is recommended. After welding is completed job should be cooled slowly with even rate, cover with mineral blankets, or with warm dry sand or lime.
