DETAILS

STARCAST Ni is a basic-graphite coated MMA electrode with a pure nickel core wire for dissimilar joining or surfacing of cast iron without preheating or with a minimum of <300ºC "cast iron cold welding". Especially suited for repair welding of cracked or broken cast iron components and for joining cast iron with lamellar graphite (GJL), cast iron with globular graphite (GTS), black-heart cast iron (GJMB), white heart cast iron (GJMW), dissimilar joints with steel, copper or nickel-based alloys.

Features

  • Easy arc striking, stable arc, finely-rippled bead surface, the weld metal is machinable.
  • Weld using a low heat input and weld with short beads, ~10 to 30 mm and in order to reduce weld residual stresses, hammer-peen welds immediately after welding and before cooling.
  • Welding on DC-, gives pulsed arc welding, deep penetration, smooth surface, no lack of fusion.
  • Welding on AC, lowest heat input, important at filling
