Sheath - Import export

Our weld wire sheathing material is used in both flux cored wire and metal cored welding wire processes. The wire sheathing is formed into a tubular product by our customers and the center of the tube contains the ‘fill’ (flux, metal powders, etc) to bring the wire to the desired chemistry. The finished wire is used across a wide breadth of industries in processes such as: Submerged Arc Welding (SMAW) Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) Wire Arc Thermal Spray Flux cored welding wire producers use our metal sheathing materials to prepare finished wire for thermal spray and in surfacing applications, in high temperature and corrosive environments. Cobalt Our Ductile Cobalt Alloys are used to produce wire to hardface applications in the construction, mining, and oil and gas industry. Our proprietary process allows us to offer high Cobalt containing products (91% Cobalt or more) while maintaining a highly ductile strip for wire forming.

AMETEK Specialty Metal Products employs a wrought powder metallurgical process to manufacture custom gauge and width strip materials used as the outside sheathing of flux cored wire and metal cored welding wire. Advantages Our high purity process allows production of wire sheathing materials with significant advantages for flux cored welding wire producers, compared to a conventional casting process. These include: Very high ductility Tight and repeatable chemistry control Availability of unique and custom chemistries High purity material for improved tool and die life Corrosion, wear and high temperature resistant Short lead times and small batch sizes Find a consolidated listing of our metal sheathing materials in our Weld Wire Sheathing Brochure. Chemistry Control We tightly control the chemistry of the incoming raw materials to ensure that trace elements are kept to a very low level. Our wrought powder metallurgy process allows chemistry flexibility

The expandable cartridge Heaters solve two major problems with conventional high density heaters , poor durability and proper fit extraction improving the accuracy of the temperature with hundreds of attachments and exits for all kind of processes . With the expandable cartridge heaters we join for the first time the best of the common cartridge heater with cartridge and an adaptive tuning quick and easy removal.
