Wb1500e Eni Ci

This document provides information on a low strength welding electrode for cast iron. It deposits nearly pure nickel that is fully machinable, with a narrow fusion zone and minimal heat-affected zone. It can be used to weld grey and malleable cast iron components like cylinder heads, blocks, and pump castings, producing machinable, crack-free welds with low penetration and dilution. Specifications for the all-weld metal composition, mechanical properties, electrode sizes and lengths, current ranges, packing details, and storage/re-baking instructions are given.

WELDING ELECTRODE

Classification AWS A5.15-90: ENi-CI BSEN1071-2003 : E C Ni-CI 3

Product Description Low strength weld for cast iron. Deposits almost pure Nickel that is fully machinable.
Narrow fusion zone, thus minimal HAZ. Smooth, quiet welding arc.

Application Can weld all standard grades of grey and malleable cast irons, typically cylinder heads
and blocks and pump castings. The stable arc achieved on low currents reduces
penetration and dilution, producing machinable crack-free welds.

Storage
Storage and Re-baking It is recommended that the WB range of electrodes are stored in a dry heated store at
a minimum temperature of 18C, and a maximum relative humidity of 60%. To avoid
damage to the coatings no more than 6 cartons should be staked on top of another.

Re-drying
If damp re-dry @ 180C for 1 hour.

Current Conditions AC (OCV70) DC+ and Welding Positions
