A BASIC FLUX COATED ELECTRODE THAT DEPOSITS A NICKEL BASED WELD METAL WITH A HIGH MOLYBDENUM CONTENT
NM-3
CLASSIFICATION
AWS A5.11 ENiMo-3 | BS EN ISO 14172 E Ni 1004
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Manufactured on a high purity nickel core wire with a metallurgically basic flux coating that also contains pure molydenium for alloying purposes plus alloys for grain refinement. The silicate binders used for extrusion ensure both coating strength and resistance to moisture absorption.
WELDING FEATURES OF THE ELECTRODE
Designed for use on DC+ only. The stable arc is readily controllable and the slag viscosity allows the great control of run-out length and slag detachability is excellent. The weld beads are bright and evenly rippled with fillet welds having a mitered profile. Metal recovery is some 130% with respect to core wire weight.
APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS TO BE WELDED
This electrode typically used for welding dissimilar metal combinations of nickel-,cobalt-, and iron-base alloys.
WELDING AMPERAGE AC and DC
OTHER DATA
Electrodes that have become damp should be re-dried at 180oC for 1 hour.
