Graphite-basic coated hardfacing welding rod

UTP 8 is for cold welding of grey and malleable cast iron, cast steel and for joining these base metals to steel, copper and copper alloys, especially for repair and maintenance. UTP 8 has excellent welding properties.

The easily controllable flow permits spatter-free welding in all positions and with minimal amperage. The weld deposit and the transition zones are fillable. No undercutting. Ideally suited for the combined welding with the ferro-nickel type UTP 86 FN (buttering with UTP 8 and filling with UTP 86 FN).

Benefits:
- Graphite-basic coating that produces a smooth, spatter-free weld in all positions with minimal amperage.
- Produces a weld deposit that is easily filled and has no undercut, even in difficult areas.
- Can be used for cold welding of grey and malleable cast iron, cast steel, and for joining these base metals to steel, copper, and copper alloys.
- Can be used in combination with the ferro-nickel type UTP 86 FN to create a weld deposit with even greater wear resistance.
