What is the J422 electrode core material

What is the J422 electrode core material

Answer:

Steel wire core is general, steel wire
The J421Z electrode is composed of two parts, core and coating composition. The electrode is coating in metal welding core (coating), uniform centripetal pressure applied to core.The electrode of different types, different cores. The core metal cored electrode, in order to ensure the quality and performance of the weld, there are strict rules on the contents of metal elements in the core, especially for harmful impurities (such as sulfur, phosphorus content, etc.) should be strictly restricted, better than the base metal. The core components directly affect the composition and properties of the weld metal, so the harmful elements in the welding core to as little as possible. For welding of carbon steel and low alloy steel welding core, are mostly made of low carbon steel as the core, and adding manganese, silicon, chromium, nickel and other components (see wire national standard GB1300 - 77). The reason of low carbon is a low carbon steel wire plastic, wire drawing is relatively easy, on the other hand can reduce the CO content of reducing gas, reduce spatter or porosity and increased weld metal solidification temperature, favorable for overhead welding. The addition of other alloy elements mainly guarantees the comprehensive mechanical properties of the weld, and also has some effect on the welding process performance and the removal of impurities.
