Applications

Due to the addition of nickel in the Excelloy 32, weld deposits are hard and resistant to frictional wear. This electrode can be used for joining and cladding of bronzes, brasses, steel, cast steel, and cast iron. This alloy offers good resistance to sea water and other corrosive environments. Common applications include repair and surfacing of gears, bearings, pumps, impellers, valve bodies and turbines.

Procedure

Clean and prepare weld zone in accordance with standard welding practice. Preheat thick sections to 400F. Maintain a medium arc length. Allow weld to cool before removing slag.
