Esab simplifies nickel-based consumables selection with AWS alloy coded product names
1 min read
Esab has simplified the selection of its range of nickel-based consumables for major arc welding processes by giving them AWS alloy coded product names. MMA electrodes, MIG wires, TIG rods, SAW flux-cored wire and strip cladding combinations are all available.
The Esab AWS alloy products can also be supplied on request according to the ASME QSC standard. All the consumables are produced in-house by the company, which has achieved ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 standards in environmental, health and safety management systems across its manufacturing facilities.
The consumables are designed to provide a superior surface finish, column strength and controlled cast and helix for trouble-free wire feeding as well as X-ray quality welds. The range includes the OK 92.55 MMA electrode for the welding of 9% Ni steel in LNG tank construction. OK Autorod NiCrMo-3 MIG wire is designed for welding high alloyed, heat resistant and corrosion resistant materials. Submerged arc and strip cladding fluxes include the OK flux range.
Esab Marathon Pac bulk wire drums containing 100 or 250 kg of nickel-based welding wire are available to help minimise downtime for wire spool exchange. The straight wire delivery from Marathon Pac also facilitates accurate weld positioning.
