GG.33-VD

Features and applications: 

• GG.33-VD  is a coated welding rod belonging to the graphite group. It produces a stable arc with minimal spatter.
• Suitable for welding cast iron structures such as: machine bases, engine mounts, machine casings, engine housings, etc.
• After welding, the resulting weld joint has high hardness and can be machined.

Chemical composition (%):

Instructions for use:

• Preheat the workpiece to 400-450  ^° C before welding.
• Drill holes at both ends of the crack before welding.
• Clean off oil, grease, and dirt before welding.
• Preheat the welding rods to 150  ^° C for 30-60 minutes before welding.
• The weld bead should be machined just enough to allow the electrode to reach the weld area, avoiding excessive machining which increases the risk of cracking due to shrinkage.
• Choose the appropriate welding current to avoid defects.
• Use AC or DC power source (+)
• Welding rod size and current used:
