Stoody's NicroMang® stick electrodes are specifically engineered for the build-up and joining of manganese steels, making them an essential tool for industries dealing with high-impact applications. These electrodes, with a diameter of 1/8", deliver a high deposition rate and exhibit remarkable impact strength due to their austenitic manganese steel composition. Ideal for use in a variety of demanding environments, such as crusher jaws, hammer mills, and railroad components, they can be applied using either AC or DC polarity, with a preference for reverse polarity. With the ability to withstand significant wear and the flexibility to deposit without thickness limits, these electrodes are a reliable choice for professionals seeking durability and performance in their welding tasks.
