Ni Rod 55

Washington alloy nickel 55 is designed for all position joining and surfacing of cast iron malleable iron and ductile iron to itself or dissimilar metals such as mild steels stainless steel wrought alloys or high nickel alloys.

Ni rod 55. Ni rod 55 welding electrode is used for shielded metal arc welding of gray ductile malleable and ni resist cast irons. Weld deposits are machinable and the deposit color will approximate that of cast iron. The electrode isespecially useful for welding heavy sections and high phosphorus irons. Ni rod 55x welding electrode is a premium quality consumable for cast iron offering true out of position welding capability with an ease of operation rivaling carbon steel electrodes.

Description ni 55 is used for welding of cast irons to themselves as well as for joining cast irons to mild steels. Tech rod 55 is used for welding of cast irons to other cast irons as well as for joining cast irons to mild steels. Special metals ni rod enife ci 55 1 8 dia maintenance alloy electrode comes in a 10 lb hermetically sealed container and is suitable for shielded metal arc welding of gray ductile malleable as well as ni resist cast irons. It is often used for repairing castings with heavy or thick sections.

The welds are moderately hard and require carbide tipped tools for machining. Ni rod 55x electrode has a nickel iron core wire to produce strong welds with low residual shrinkage stresses and is well suited for welding thick sections. It is also used for welding cast irons to various wrought materials including carbon steels low alloy steels and nickel alloys. It is also employed for the repair of castings.

A preheat and inter pass temperature of not less than 350 f 175 c is required during welding. The welds are moderately hard and require carbide tipped tools for machining.

Ni 55 is used for welding of cast irons to themselves as well as for joining cast irons to mild steels. Weld deposits are usually machine able but under conditions of high admixture the welds can become hard and difficult to machine. Typical weld metal chemistry.
