Castolin 6450 welding electrodes

Castolin 6450

Basic-coated high-performance stick electrode with 150 % yield based on FeMnCr. Work-hardening, austenitic weld metal. Withstands high impact, pressure and shock loads as well as abrasion stresses. Non-rusting. Can be machined.

Technical data
DIN EN 14700: E Fe9

Applications
For surfacing, joining and repair welding of wear-resistant, austenitic manganese steels and for surfacing unalloyed and low-alloy steels.

Typical application examples are
Jaws and cones of crushers, excavator parts, grinding and pan grinder gears, rails of overhead cranes, switch frogs, chain wheels, conveyor rollers, wheel flanges, beaters and blow bars as well as crossing pieces.

Processing instructions
Remove cracked or damaged material. Clean welding areas. Re-dry at 300 °C - 1 h. During welding, adjust the heat input to the component, its material and dimensions. Keep the interpass temperature as low as possible. Weld austenitic manganese steels as cold as possible (≤ 300 °C) without preheating.

Welding positions: PA, PB, PC
Type of current: = (+) or ~
