New Cadweld® Mutli from Erico® Is a Complete Welding System Using Just One Mold



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - SOLON, Ohio, September 13, 2002 - The new CADWELD MULTI from ERICO provides the quality connections you've come to expect from the CADWELD exothermic system, but requires only one mold to produce more than 30 different welded connection types. This new system replaces well over 150 individual molds!

The CADWELD MULTI uses an innovative mold design combined with a range of high-temperature gaskets/battings. Many types of welded connections may be produced without changing the mold every time a new connection style is required.

The new CADWELD MULTI features include:
o Versatility - a variety of connections styles may be made with a single mold
o All connections use a #90 weld metal - reducing inventory and increasing simplicity
o The unique mold design increases its service life to more than 100 connections. That is double the life of standard exothermic molds.
o For use on cable sizes up to a 1/0 concentric stranded conductor
o Patented self sealing system that prevents weld metal leakage
o Easy alignment of conductors
o Lightweight kit that contains enough weld metal and gaskets/battings for 20 connections.

This new system offers all of the benefits of a classic CADWELD connection including current carrying capacity equal to that of the conductor; a permanent molecular bond that cannot loosen or corrode; and, the ability to withstand repeated fault currents.
