All-State Super 4-60® Unique electrode for cast iron, ductile iron and dissimilar metals. Does not overheat. AC/DC Straight or Reverse General Characteristics This machinable alloy formulation designed for critical cast iron repairs produces extraordinary crack resistant deposits. Super 4-60® offers such performance qualities as: superior weldability; excellent wash and fluidity;
strong, quiet, yet spatter free arc; no overheating at rated amperages thus no flux breakdown which can produce
porosity and inclusions in the weld deposit; consistent and reliable welds.
Typical Applications Heavy cast iron machine bases, pump and differential housings: build up applications on cast iron dies, cylinder heads, engine blocks, heavy equipment parts, gear teeth, sprockets; joining cast and ductile iron to steel and cast iron pipe/flanges, housings. Qualities Tensile strength—up to 80,000 psi (56.26 kgs/mm2) Yield strength—up to 60,000 psi (42.19 kgs/mm2) Elongation in 2"—4 to 12% Hardness—200 to 300 BrineIl Deposit—Magnetic—color match—good Procedures Clean weld area. Vee cracks using All-State® Chamfer Rod. Critical applications require preheating of 500°-600°F (260°-316°C). Maintain this temperature throughout entire welding operation. Peen lightly after each weld bead. Remove all slag between passes. Use a skip welding technique. Upon completion, cover casting and allow it to cool slowly.
