Exaton NiCrMo-3
NiCrMo-3 welding wire is suitable for joining nickel-chromium-molybdenum nickel alloys and chromiumnickel-molybdenum steels with very high corrosion resistance in oxidizing, aqueous and high temperature environments such as 6Mo-steels, UNS N06625 (2.4856) and corresponding grades. It is also suitable for joining stainless steels and nickel alloys for high-temperature service. NiCrMo-3 can also be used for dissimilar joining of stainless steels to nickel alloys, for overlay welding and it is used for MIG/MAG welding. Applications for NiCrMo-3 are found in cryogenics, components subject to high temperature service up to 980°C (1800°F) such as aircraft ducting, engine exhaust systems, power boilers and recovery boilers and a diversity of seawater applications. The combination of strength and corrosion resistance over a wide range of temperatures is utilized in reaction vessels, line pipe distillation columns and heat exchangers.
