GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS

The flux coating on HPP314 contains no Barium, eliminating hazardous fumes. The extremely strong arc drive penetrates surface contaminants. HPP314 consists of an iron-nickel austenite with finely distributed graphite. With the extra nickel content, it ensures a crack resistant machinable weld. The special slag composition can be welded over without creating porosity.

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS: Universal electrode for joining a wide variety of ductile, nodular and malleable cast irons. Ideally suited for the repair of meehanite dies.
