SelectAlloy 182-AP

Nickel Alloy / Flux Cored / Gas Shielded

Resources

Features

  • Designed for welding in all positions in both 75-80% Ar/balance CO₂ or 100% CO₂ shielding gas
  • Used for welding nickel-chromium-iron alloys, for welding the clad side of joints in steel clad with nickel-chromium-iron alloy and steel clad with ferritic chromium steel, and for surfacing steel with nickel-chromium-iron weld metal (when comparatively high manganese content in the weld metal is not detrimental for intended service).
  • Typical applications include harsh environments that can be found in desalination, petrochemical, and power generation plants, and in temperature critical conditions such as furnace equipment and piping.
