- E-BK FENI 60

Stainless Steel Welding Electrode E BK Feni 60

Ferronickel cored electrode for welding grey, nodular and alloyed cast iron. Due to the low heat input, the high tensile strength, and ductility, successful welds can be made on heavy or highly stressed sections. BK Feni 60 can be used for joining virtually all types of cast iron and for joining cast iron to different types of steel alloys. The special formula allows to weld with a high current without the coating turning red. The possibility to use straight polarity without the danger of cracking guarantees full penetration and very strong welds. Thanks to the pulsating arc, BK Feni 60 can be used in all positions (vertical down and up, overhead). Fully machinable, solid, and dense deposit.

Applications

Repairing heavy sections of grey and alloyed cast irons, SG iron, and melanite. Machine bases, motor blocks, gear cases, cast iron dies, pumps. Repairing casting defects with a good color match.

Instruction

Weld with low heat input.

Electrode to be held perpendicular to the workpiece.

For welding stainless steel, the coating must not be damaged and it is recommended to return over the starting point of the bead.

Preferred DC power supply , electric current should not be high.

Peen the deposit after every pass to reduce stress build-up.
