Ceweld® go's further, bigger multinationals usualy have production units in several countries that makes it practicaly impossible to grand each badge within à certain classification. To avoid this from happening all our seamless fluxcored, coppercoated welding wires are made at 1 location at Altleiningen in Germany.
These seamless fluxcored welding wires are higher qualified at approval companies and ables you to have less welding procedures and less different types of welding wires covering even more welding jobs. Our Standard Ceweld AA M460 for example is approved in class 5Y46 which means that you are covered up to S460 steel grade at minus 60 degrees Celsius with only 1 wire. Others have to use more expensive nickel alloyed welding wires to obtain these values and this requires more welding procedures. On top of this Ceweld AA M460 is also suitable for PWHT which reduces the numbers of welding wires and procedures again.
After all you will save a lot of money by using Megafil seamless welding wires and it ables you to offer à higher quality to your customers As well !
Moisture is still the main enemy for welding consumables. The minerals being used to form the slag that covers the weld pool are highly hygroscopic and should be taken very seriously for submerged arc powder and covered stick electrodes. Moisture also know how to find his way very quickly at folded flux cored wires and it only takes a few hours exposure to humidity before the general requirement of less than 5ml hydrogen in 100gr weld metal is exceeded. The most important steps to prevent hydrogen inducedcracking are:
1) Use airtight packing for covered electrodes
2) Use seamless fluxcored wires for Mig/Mag welding
3) Always redry sub arc powders directly before use
