DETAILS
For joining wide range of stainless steel and mild steel base metal specially for oxidation and heat resistance applications.
Features/Characteristics
Fully austenitic weld deposit, heat resistant up to 1200 °C in oxidizing and sulphur free atmosphere, smooth rapid spatter free deposition. Ideal for joining stainless steel of unknown composition.
SME A26 Welding Rod Uses/Applications
Welding of austenitic stainless steel, heat resistance steel, of the type 25Cr/20Ni. Application in to welding of tanks, heat exchangers, heat treating boxes and baskets.
Welding Technique/Procedure
Clean the area to be welded. For heavy thickness prepare a 60 included angle V. Fit up should be a accurate for long joints. Weld at regular intervals and use jigs & fixtures to avoid distortion. Use DCRP (DC+) on DC Power Source for good ripple & finish. Stringer bead technique with shortest possible are length is recommended.
