Special Metal INCOFLUX 8 Submerged Arc Flux

INCOFLUX 8 is an agglomerated Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) Flux designed for wire welding primarily with MONEL Filler Metal 67, although it can also be used with MONEL Filler Metal 60. Typical applications are groove welding 70/30, 80/20, and 90/10 Copper-Nickel alloys. It can also be used for overlaying carbon steels, but requires a buffer layer of either Nickel Filler Metal 61 or MONEL Filler Metal 60 in order to prevent excess iron dilution that can embrittle the copper-nickel deposit.
