CAST IRON
Alcam # 60 (Non conductive Coating Max Machine
Cast Iron)
AC DC-S DC-R Tig & Mig
Soft. The super softness of this product makes
this a machinist’s delight. Smooth flowing with excellent
strength and the combined ability of joining dissimilar metals. The
#60 rod will not side-arc allowing for easier welding in confined
space.
• Tensile Strength – 50,000 PSI
• Elongation – 30%
• Hardness – 160 HB
• Low amperage
• Maximum Machinability
APPLICATIONS & PROCEDURES:
Ideal for low temperature welding of cast iron in all positions. Repairs
breaks and cracks in engine blocks, gear housings, and machine bases.
Alcam #60 is ideal for filling holes and building up worn or missing
sections, followed by machining to final dimensions. The #60 is also
capable of joining cast iron to steel.

TIG & MIG: All standard sizes available
Alcam
# 61 (High Strength Cast, Cast to Cast & Cast to Steel)
AC DC-R DC-S Tig & Mig
Strong. This high
strength electrode is designed for cast steel subject to
abusive situations such as motor mounts, pump casings and machine
bases. This product is excellent for cast iron to steel and even stainless
steel to cast iron.
• Tensile
Strength – 80,000 PSI,
• Elongation – 20%
• Hardness - 200 Birnnel
• Machinable
APPLICATIONS
& PROCEDURES:
Alcam# 61 is used for repair and fabrication of all gray and alloyed
cast irons. This electrode is recommended for welding machine bases,
gear housings, cylinder heads, cams, levers, filling holes, repairing
teeth of cast gears, and building up for replacing missing sections.
The #61 is ideal for similar joining of ductile iron, “Ni-Resistant”
and “Meehanite,” or dissimilar joining to steel. Also,
the #61 is suitable for joining nickel alloys to gray cast iron, cast
steel and malleable cast iron

Alcam # 62 (Dirty Cast Iron)
AC, DC-S or DC-R
Dirty. When working with dirty or oil soaked casting,
Alcam #62 dives deeper into the casting to burn out
the impurities, leaving a high strength deposit with a superior appearance..
• Tensile Strength – 75,000 PSI,
• Elongation - 24%
• Hardness - 210 Brinnel
• Machinable
APPLICATIONS & PROCEDURES:
Excellent for use on sewer pipe, machine base, gear housing, transmission
housings, sprockets, repair or buildup of gears and any repair of
cast iron to steel.
