OVERVIEW

Premium Nickel-Chromium-Molybdenum TIG Alloy

The Weldmold 966T is a high-performance TIG welding rod specifically formulated for the most demanding industrial maintenance and repair applications. Composed of a complex Nickel-Chromium-Molybdenum alloy, this filler metal is engineered to provide exceptional strength, ductility, and resistance to extreme environmental factors. The 0.045-inch diameter allows for precise heat control and deposition, making it an excellent choice for intricate repairs on tools, dies, and thin-walled components.

One of the primary strengths of the 966T alloy is its ability to withstand thermal shock and high-temperature oxidation. This makes it the preferred choice for repairing hot working tools, forging dies, and furnace components that undergo rapid heating and cooling cycles. Furthermore, its robust chemical composition offers outstanding corrosion resistance, ensuring longevity in harsh chemical processing environments. The deposit is fully machinable, allowing for post-weld finishing to exact tolerances.

In the field of Maintenance, Repair, and Operations (MRO), Weldmold 966T is often regarded as a universal problem solver. It excels at joining dissimilar metals, such as stainless steel to carbon steel, or nickel alloys to steel, without the risk of cracking. This versatility reduces the need to stock multiple specialty rods for different base materials. Supplied in a convenient 1 lb tube, these 36-inch cut lengths are protected from moisture and contamination, ensuring high-quality welds every time you strike an arc.
