Wire welding - 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.

Our standard offering of nickel chrome strip products contain a chrome percentage ranging from 20%, 30% and 35% chrome (balance nickel). Silicon can also be added to the product to promote de-oxidation during the welding process The 35% chrome (AMETEK 835) is one of the highest chrome containing products offered in the industry and our high purity process allows for elongations above 45% for even those products containing silicon additions between 1% and 2%.

AMETEK Specialty Metal Products has applied the high purity wrought powder compaction process to Ductile Cobalt Alloys in order to produce multiple ductile cobalt strip products generally used by weld wire manufacturers as sheathing for flux cored and metal cored hardfacing materials. These alloys range from 80 to 95% cobalt with Iron or Iron-Nickel additions to improve ductility for drawing operations.

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

Our ability to process corrosion resistant, conductive and high temperature alloys enables us to engineer precision materials that are highly suited for Industrial applications. Advanced Materials for Industrial Applications The precision strip and shaped wire materials we manufacture improve product performance in critical Industrial applications including: Weld Wire Sheathing for Flux Cored Wire and Metal Core processes Nickel-Tungsten Strip (NiW) for Superconducting Substrate Material Small Engine Needle Valves Bunched Nickel Wire for Thermocouple Wire Dedicated to Meeting Your Industrial Needs At AMETEK Specialty Metal Products, we take pride in developing material solutions that match the exacting needs of our customer for their Industrial applications.
