* Feature

For welding of 70/30, 80/20 and 90/10 copper-nickel alloys.

Can be used for MIG overlay on steel after a first layer with Nickel 208.

Dissimilar welding applications include joining copper-nickel alloys to Nickel 200 or nickel-copper alloys.

* Application

Used for TIG and MIG and oxy-fuel welding of 70/30, 80/20 and 90/10 copper-nickel alloys.
