Covered electrodes for manual metal-arc welding, matched to the base metal.
Standards and size range
| Standard | Covers | Size range |
|---|---|---|
| ASTM B863 | Titanium wire | Diameter 0.127 – 19.05 mm; properties of finer wire by agreement |
| ASTM B164, B166 | Ni-Cu and Ni-Cr-Fe alloy wire | per standard |
| ASTM B344 | Ni-Cr and Ni-Cr-Fe resistance wire | per standard |
| AWS A5.14 | Nickel and nickel-alloy bare welding rods and electrodes | Chemical analysis is the only mandatory test; no mechanical values |
| AWS A5.16 | Titanium and titanium-alloy welding rods and electrodes | per standard |
| AWS A5.21 | Hardfacing rods and electrodes (cobalt and others) | Drawn wire φ1.2 – 8.0 mm; cast rods φ2.4 – 8.0 mm |
| Drawing | Shaped and ultra-fine wire | |
These are the limits set by each standard, not our supply range; larger sizes can be supplied by agreement, with mechanical properties agreed separately.

Manufacturing and inspection
- Drawn in several passes with intermediate anneals; supplied annealed or hard as ordered.
- The titanium wire standard gives no values for cold-drawn wire; agree them on the order.
- Welding wire: every lot comes with a chemical analysis certificate; specify on the order if you need an all-weld-metal mechanical test report.
- Every lot is checked by PMI to confirm the alloy.
- EN 10204 3.1 certificates with every delivery; 3.2 with third-party witnessing on request.
