Arcos Covered Electrode Provides Corrosion Resistance


Mount Carmel, PA ---Arcos Industries, LLC manufactures Arcos 1N12, a high nickel
covered electrode, which is used for welding nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloys to themselves and to steel. It is also suitable for welding 5% and 9% nickel steels for low temperature service to themselves as well as to low alloys or stainless steel.

Arcos 1N12 has moderate strength, good fabricability and superior corrosion resistance from cryogenic to elevated temperatures (up to 1,800 degrees F). This electrode resists corrosive attack and is virtually immune to chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking.

Arcos 1N12 is used to join NiCrMo alloys such as 625, 800, 801, 825 and 600.It is utilized for welding piping systems and reactor components in the power generation industry and for high temperature service in a variety of other engineering applications including petrochemical plants and furnace equipment. This versatile wire is excellent for overlaying on steel where exceptional corrosion resistance is required, such as chloride-contaminated cooling water in heat exchangers, as well as offshore and marine environments.
