Electrodes Cast Iron Rod For Oxy-Fuel 1/418" 1 Pound Tube Pkg

Cast Iron Rod Is A High Quality Gray Iron Oxy-Acetylene Welding Rod Designed For Gas Welding Of Cast Iron, General Fabrication Or Buildup New Or Worn Surfaces On Castings. Cast Iron Rod Produces Machinable Weld Deposits That Have The Same Color, Compositions And Granular Structure As The Base Metal (Gray Iron). The Weld, If Properly Made Can Be As Strong As The Orginal Casting. For Gas Welding Of Cast Iron In Fabrication Or Buildup On New Or Worn Surface On Castings. Cast Iron Rod Is Used To Repair Machine Base, Manifold, Engine Blocks, Cylinder Heads And Gear Housings. Procedure: Bevel Heavy Sections To Form A 75 Degree. Always Use A Neutral Flame To Prevent Porosity Due To Oxidation Of Carbon. Preheat Part To 800 Degrees Fahrenheit Before Starting To Weld. Heat Rod End, Dip In Weldcote Cast Iron Flux And Transfer To Weld Area (Fusion Welding). Melt Off A Small Amount Of Rod; Continue Heating Until Deposit Flows Out. Add Filler Metal A Drop At A Time Making Sure Each Deposit Is Fused To The Base Metal; Use Weldcote Cast Iron Flux For Good Cleaning And Protection. After Welding Allow Part To Cool Slowly To Present Hardening And Cracking.
