OK NiCu 1
OK NiCu 1 is a nickel-copper cored electrode of monel type for welding normal grades of cast iron such as gray-, ductile- and malleable irons. Deposition is done on cold or slightly preheated material. The weld metal is well machinable and provides a good colour match to that of cast iron.
