4000 is a high nickel content electrode with
an extruded coating for welding cast irons to
themselves, as well as joining them to mild
and stainless steels. This electrode is especially
suited for welding in deep recesses or close
quarters due to the non-conductive flux coating.
Welds are produced easily in all positions
and deposits are readily machined.
