Description
When it comes to welding cast iron, quality and precision matter. Our Cast Iron Electrodes 99 & 55 offer reliable performance for a wide range of cast iron repair and fabrication tasks. These electrodes are specially formulated for maximum strength, crack resistance, and machinability — making them ideal for structural and non-structural welding applications.
The 99% nickel (ENi-CI) electrode is best suited for high-strength welds on grey and malleable cast iron. It offers excellent machinability and minimal weld stress, which helps reduce cracking. This type is often used in critical applications such as engine blocks, pump housings, and gearboxes.
Meanwhile, the 55% nickel (ENiFe-CI) electrode provides a balance between strength and ductility. It’s more cost-effective than pure nickel rods and performs exceptionally well when joining cast iron to steel or repairing castings where machinability is less critical but toughness is essential.
