TECH-ROD® 55 Stick Electrode is designed for welding dissimilar nickel alloys, carbon steels or low alloy steels.

DETAILS

TECH-ROD® 55 produces moderately hard welds and require carbide tipped tools for machining, readily used for welding of ductile, pliable cast irons and to repair castings.

Features

  • The welds are moderately hard and require carbide tipped tools for machining
  • A preheat and inter-pass temperature of not less than 350°F (177°C) is required during welding to prevent cracking
  • Q2 Lot® - certificates showing actual deposit composition available online

Typical Applications

  • Welding of ductile, pliable cast irons
  • Dissimilar welds to nickel alloys, carbon steels, and low-alloy steels
  • Repair of castings

Welding Positions

  • Polarity DC+

Shielding Gas

  • N/A
