PHiLARC - The No. 1 Choice of Welders

Nickelarc 132

AWS Specification : AWS A5.11 E NiCrFe-1

JIS Specification: NONE

Other Specification: NONE

 

I. APPLICATIONS:

Nickelarc 132 offers corrosion resistance over a wide range of environments ranging from cryogenic temperatures to approximately 1500ºF (820ºC). This allows PHILARC Nickelarc 132 to be used in the chemical and food processing industries as well as for heat exchangers and evaporators. The most common use of this electrode would be for welding the clad side of joints in steel clad with Inconel® 600 and for surfacing steel.

    II. DESCRIPTION:

Nickelarc 132 is a nickel-chromium-iron flux-coated electrode designed primarily for welding Inconel® 600 and Incoloy® 825. Common ASTM base metals that can be joined are ASTM B163, B166, B167 and B168.

    III. NOTES ON USAGE:

  • Preheating is not necessary in general.

  • Avoid the continuous welding if possible. It is effective to weld under 150ºC for reducing cracking tendency.

  • Dry the electrodes at 150 ~ 200ºC for 30 ~ 60 minutes before use.
