ESAB OK NiFe-Cl-A

The ESAB OK NiFe-Cl-A is a nickel-iron cored electrode designed for welding and repairing cast iron, particularly grey, ductile, and malleable irons. It is ideal for rectification and joining cast iron to steel, offering stronger and more crack-resistant welds than nickel-only electrodes like OK Ni-Cl. With superior resistance to solidification cracking, it is perfect for high-duty welds on ductile iron and castings with elevated sulphur and phosphorous content.

This electrode operates with both AC and DC+/- currents, providing flexibility in diverse welding environments. OK NiFe-Cl-A is highly suited for repairing heavy-duty machine parts and cast iron components that endure mechanical stress. Its weld metal is stronger and more durable than pure nickel alternatives, making it a top choice for heavy repairs.
