XL-C34

General Characteristics :

Special low Nickel electrode for repair and fabrication of cast-iron components and for joining of cast-iron to steel and cast steel. Designed for welding of cast-iron where colour matche is required. The electrode can be used without preheat and gives a medium strength machinable weld metal. XL- C34 is a general purpose welding electrode used for filling cavities in grey, malleable, nodular and S.G cast irons. When welding cast-iron without preheat, the smallest possible electrode dia. and the lowest possible welding current should be used in order to limit the width of the heat affected zone.

Applications :

Machine tool bases and frames, Exhaust manifolds Oil and grease pumps, Gear and bearing cases iron / steel construction and connections.

Advantages :

• Special type of core wire (bi-metallic) provide better electrical conductivity. Therefore no overheating of the electrode and minimized stub loss.
• Acceptability and flexibility suitable for assemblies subjected to heavy stress.
• Soft and high strength.
• Less power consumption.
• Mech. properties remain stable easy working.
• Longevity and strength.
• Suitable for Insitu welding.
• For precision work and good finish.
• Flexibility, acceptability.
• Better Strength.
