Description

Hi-Alloy 460 has a specially formulated core wire and flux coating that
combine to provide a smooth stable arc and dense, porosity free, machinable welds on a
variety of cast irons including ductile, nodular, and malleable irons. It is also commonly
used for joining cast irons to steel and is especially suited for repairing meehanite dies,
and castings contaminated by oil, grease, rust, dirt, or chemicals.
