Category Help on Search CIN-2 For Repairing of Cast I ron Class of: AWS A5.15 ENiFe-CI JIS Z 3252 DFCNiFe DESCRIPTION CIN-2 is a high grade special purpose electrode with ferro-nickel alloy core (45% Fe 55% Ni). This electrode is especially intended for cold welding of cast iron. Due to the special character of the coatings, welding can be completed by lower current compared with the conventional electrodes. So, the weld metal can be machined by cutting tools and is not sensitive to cracking. As the weld metal has excellent mechanical properties, it is most suitable for cold welding of ductile cast iron (nodular cast iron). APPLICATIONS For welding of nodular cast iron, repairing and joining all kinds of cast iron, such as casings, machine frames, engine blocks, cylinders and valves. Also suitable for underlay of hardsurfacing. INSTRUCTIONS 1. Dry the electrodes at 80 ~ 110C for 30 ~ 60 minutes before use. 2. Choose the welding current within the suitable welding current range. 3. As a rule, no preheating or postheating is necessary, but the best result is obtained when base metal is heated to 100 ~ 200C before welding.
