Electrode steaming: 250-300°C/1h. Joints to be welded must be clean and free of grease, cracks…. Guide electrodes almost vertically (~ 80°) in relation to the workpiece, keep arc short, lay drawn beads (max. 2 sweeps per electrode diameter) to limit heat input. Nickel-base alloys do not require preheating, and an inter-pass temperature of 150°C must be respected. Applied to the repair of steels with a high carbon content, preheating to between 200 and 250°C is required. Heat treatment after welding has no effect on the deposit.

Why choose this ABRANEL A electrode?
ABRANEL A is a nickel-chromium-iron based coated electrode, designed for welding dissimilar alloys, nickel-based alloys (Inconel 600/601/690 type) or for hardfacing components exposed to high thermal and corrosive stresses.
In particular, it is known as Inconel 182 (AWS A5.11 / EN ISO 14172 – E Ni 6182).
The advantages of the NiCrFe-2 E electrode :
– Excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation: ideal for aggressive environments (acids, chlorides, high temperatures).
-Perfect for welding dissimilar alloys: carbon steel to stainless steel, carbon steel to Inconel, or nickel to steel.
-Very good heat resistance: stable in prolonged service up to 900°C, excellent creep resistance.
-Low dilution and stable metallurgical structure: limits cracking and improves the longevity of the welded joint.
-Easy to use: stable arc, smooth slag, good release, suitable for welding in all positions.
-Perfect for hardfacing: especially on areas subject to high thermal or chemical wear (valve seats, transition zones, etc.).
