Blue Demon ENiCI Nickel 99 Cast Iron Covered Electrodes

 

ENiCI Nickel 99 welding electrode is designed for welding gray iron castings to themselves as well as joining them to mild or stainless steels.  It is also used to repair castings.  With the high nickel content, the welds are easily machined.  A Preheat and interpass temperature of not less than 350⁰F is recommended during welding.
