FCW NICI-O
Cast iron
Description & applications
· Flux cored wire for semi-automatic self shielded arc welding
· Designed for welding grey, malleable, nodular and phosphorous cast iron.
· Also used to for dissimilar weldments between cast iron and steel.
· Welding of highly restrained or thick walled pieces
· Preheat is not necessary. Heat input is low which favours limited H.A.Z.
APPLICATIONS
· Joining and repairing all types of cast iron
