DETAILS
BLUE MAX® MIG 330 ideal for high temperature environments, but heat input must be kept at a minimum during welding to avoid possible micro-fissuring.
Features
- Q2 Lot® - Certified Material Test Report showing actual wire composition and Country of Origin of each lot is available online in the Certificate Center
- Proprietary surface lubricant for steady feeding and arc stability leading to exceptional performance at high wire feed speeds
- High sulfur environments adversely affect the high temperature performance
- Heat input must be kept at a minimum during welding to avoid possible micro-fissuring
Typical Applications
- Heat Treatment
- Furnace Environments
- Used to weld wrought and cast forms of stainless steels of similar chemical compositions, which offer good heat and scale resistance to 1800°F (980°C)
Welding Positions
- All
Shielding Gas
