Serial Y., assignor, Carbide and newed April 12, 1935. Application for reissue July 24, 1936, Serial No. 92,393 J Claims: (01. 219-8) culty, which shall be simple and inexpensive of manufacture, and which shall be especially adapted for use in arc welding with heavy currents. The above and other objects of my invention will be evident from the accompanying specification having reference to the annexed drawing in which Figure 1 is a front view of a welding rod illustrating one embodiment of my invention, and
Figure 2 is a cross section of the welding rod, taken on line 2-2 of Figure 1.
It is well known that it is desirable that arc welding electrodes be provided with coatings containing materials which will decompose at high temperatures, thus producing a gas protecting envelope around the arc protecting the fused and molten metal from contamination by the oxygen and nitrogen of the air. The coating also usually contains fluxing and slagging materials which afford a slag coating over the solidfie'd and solidifying metal, protecting it from thev atmosphere. When the weld is moderately cold the porous sla gs are easily removed from the deposited weld metal.
I have found that the use of bituminous coals in an arc welding electrode coating affords a gaseous envelope around the arc and also produces a certain amount of fixed carbon which can reduce metallic oxides at elevated temperatures. I prefer to use from 2% to by weight of coal in the electrode coating. This percentage is calculated exclusive of the binder. Various types of coal may be employed. The coals which are suitable come in the classes known as sub-bituminous and bituminous. The following classifications have been found useful:
coal 01' of sub-bitu 3. Canneloid, semi-bituminous coal with fuel ratio not exceeding 4.0. These classifications are in accordance with those proposed by professional paper No. 100A of the' United States Geological Survey The Coal Fields of the United States by M. R. Campbell and J. A. Bownocker. The fuel ratio is the quotient obtained by dividing the fixed carbon content by the volatile matter content as determined by proximate analysis. The 'cannel coals are characterized by high'hydrogen content, and partly for this reason are eflicacious in electrode coatings. Lignite is alsov characterized by high hydrogen content and is useful since it contains usually more than 50% volatile matter with a fuel ratio of approximately 1.0. I have found that dried .peat has a high volatile content and may be used,
but it is not as satisfactory as lignite or cannel coal on account of the necessity of removing the large amount of water which it normally contains. 3
Welding rods are constructed in accordance with my invention as follows: A mixture is formed of powdered coal of the desired fuel ratio and slag-forming or flux material. The coal should amount to from 2 to 25% of the mixture. A binder is added to the mixture and the coal, and the welding rod is coated with the flux mixture. I have found that water glass is especially suitable for a binder although my invention is not limited to the use of any particular binder.
Typical examples of weld rods constructed in accordance with my invention are given below:
Example I v Parts by Flux. weight Calcium carb 50 Silica flour 4O Rutile 10 Goal (11% volatile combustible matter) 10 Diluted water glass was used as a binder and the finished electrode contained about 10% coating. The core was mild steel. Similar electrodes were made for the purpose of comparison without the addition of coal. Weldswere made and tested. The weld made from the electrode containing coal had a strength of about 60,000 lbs.-v
, per sq. in. and a free bend elongationof 18% to 24%. Welds'from the electrode without the coal addition gave a strength of around 55,000 lbs. persq. in. and a free bend ductility of about 12%.
aoganese ore Ferromanganese (low carbon, low silicon) Example II Parts by Flux mixture "I'm Slip clay iron oxide .r
liutiie gdannel coal (48% volatile combustible matter Diluted water glass was used as a binder and the finished electrode contained about coating, The use of the cannel coal with the higher volatile combustible matter gave good are protection and yielded l'ess fixed carbon than a lower volatile coal. The resulting weld had a-tensile strength of over 60,000 lbs. per sq. in. with a free bend between 0.5 and 4.
elongation of 32% to 38% in the metal deposited.
While the invention has been described as applied to the coating of welding electrodes of ferrous material, it is not so limitedsince it is adapted for use as weld rods under other conditions.
