Welding rods

Original price was: KSh 1,500.00.Current price is: KSh 1,000.00.

Key Considerations

Amperage: Ensure you use the correct amperage for the welding rod to achieve optimal weld strength and minimize defects.
Electrode Coating: The coating on the rod plays a critical role in protecting the weld pool from contamination and providing the right arc stability.
Welding Position: Some rods are designed for specific positions (flat, horizontal, vertical, or overhead), so it’s important to choose a rod based on the orientation of the weld.

Description

Key Features

Coating: Most welding rods are coated with flux to protect the weld from contaminants like oxygen and moisture.
Material Composition: Made from metals like steel, aluminum, or other alloys, depending on the welding application.
Size: Available in various diameters (e.g., 2.5mm, 3.2mm, 4.0mm) and lengths to suit specific projects.

Applications

Mild Steel Rods: Used for general fabrication and structural work.
Stainless Steel Rods: Ideal for corrosion-resistant applications.
Specialty Rods: For cast iron, hardfacing, and aluminum welding.

Selection Criteria

Type of metal being welded.
