STOODY® STOODITE® 21 CTD 1/8" Dia X 14" Hard Facing Electrode comes in a 5 lb vac pak and bonds well for all weldable steels, including stainless steel. Electrode's typical applications include steam valves, forging dies, hydro-turbine cavitations repair, hot shears, piercing plugs, chemical and petrochemical valves. Coated electrode deposits low carbon austenitic type cobalt alloy having great work hardenable high temperature strength and impact resistance. These deposits are quite stable during thermal cycling, making them ideal for hot die materials. Shielded metal arc welding electrode is suitable for valve trim on steam and fluid control valve bodies and seats.
