Excelloy 69 AC/DC +
For stainless steel. A universal, high-deposition, crack resistant alloy
Excelloy 69 is an exceptionally smooth running spray transfer electrode that produce uniform, spatter free welds. The special flux coating greatly enhances welding speed, deposition and metal recovery rates. Deposits are highly ductile and crack resistant as well as being highly corrosion resistant.
Applications
Developed for use on most common grades of stainless steel. Typically used to fabricate and repair food, dairy, and chemical equipment. Can be used where prior weld repairs have failed. This alloy is commonly used as an elastic cushion prior to overlaying with hard surfacing alloys. High deposition rates make this electrode very economical as a build up alloy.
Procedure
Clean and prepare weld zone in accordance with standard welding practice. Do not preheat base metal. Tack parts to maintain alignment and reduce distortion. Maintain a short drag arc length as you tilt the electrode 15 degrees in direction of travel. Prevent excessive heat build up by skip welding whenever possible. Remove slag between passes and allow to slow cool.
