Foundry – cored wire for foundry

WINOD – cored wire for nodulising grey iron castings on the basis of FeSiMg

WLS 1325, WLS 0325 (13mm, 9mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy. The classical filler composition provides calm reaction, good utilisation of Mg, and low – cost metal treatment. The wire is suitable for treating molten synthetic metal with S <0,025% content from induction furnaces.

WLS 0225 (13mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy. The classical filler composition provides calm reaction, good utilisation of Mg, and low – cost metal treatment. The wire is suitable for treating molten synthetic metal with S <0,025% content from induction furnaces.

WLS 3325 (13mm, 9mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy. The filler composition provides calm reaction and very good utilisation of Mg. The molten metal, treated by such a wire, is not very much inclined to shrinkage cavities. The wire is primarily suitable for treating molten synthetic metals, molten metals with a high content of scrap steel, molten in induction furnaces; S <0,030% content.

WLS 0316, WLS 1316 (13mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy. The classical filler composition provides calm reaction, good utilisation of Mg, and low – cost metal treatment. The wire is suitable for treating molten synthetic metal with S <0,02% content from induction furnaces.

WLS 3316 (13mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy. The composition provides extremely calm reaction and very good utilisation of Mg. It is suitable for treating molten synthetic metal in induction furnaces. It gives good results also in the event of desulphurised hot metal with S <0,02% content from cupola furnaces.

WHS 1525 (13mm, 9mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy. The composition provides calm reaction and good utilisation of Mg, small quantity of very dry slag, good and fast separation of  lag and metal, and very pure refractory coatings. The wire is suitable for the non – desulphurised melts from cupola furnaces with initial S = 0,025 – 0,070% content.

WINOD – cored wire for nodulising grey iron castings on the basis of Mg metal

W Mg mix 3051 (9mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSi alloy and Mg metal. High content of Mg ensures good utilisation of Mg and minimum metal treatment costs.

W Mg mix 1430 (13mm)

The wire filler is composed of the FeSiMg alloy and Mg metal. It is suitable for treating the molten metal with low sulphur content from induction furnaces. The wire excels in extremely low costs of treatment.

W Mg (13mm, 9mm)

The wire filler is composed of Mg granules. Selection of Mg, granules, wire diameter and metal mantle thickness are the factors that influence the result. The wire is suitable for treating pure melts, large quantities and for frequent treatment.

WINOC – cored wire for grey iron inoculation on the basis of FeSi

WISTRON (13mm, 9mm)

The wire, filled with FeSiSr filler, effectively reduces inclination to undercooling and causes no extreme increase in the number of eutectic cells. This type of wire is recommended for inoculation of melts with relatively high and medium- high sulphur contents. The use of this inoculant in nodular cast iron is limited. It is effectively used only  if the melt is not treated by using rare earths (Ce).

WIAL (13mm, 9mm)

The wire is filled with the FeSiAl inoculant, which is well-known as a strong graphitizer. Nowadays this type of inoculant is widely used for nodular cast iron, primarily in thin – wall castings.

WILAN (16mm, 13mm)

The wire is filled with a newly developed inoculant on the basis of Ba and La. The inoculant successfully increases the number of nodules and reduces the casting inclination to causing shrinkage cavities.

WINBAR (13mm, 9mm)

The wire is filled with the Ba inoculant. It eliminates cementite very successfully in both grey cast iron and nodular cast iron. In comparison with other inoculants, the Ba inoculant creates a high nucleation rate immediately after being added to the melt. This rate decreases with time more slowly (low effect of fading). It is recommended to be used for inoculation in early stages of production process, e.g. two core treatment of melt in ladle. It is recommended to be used also in thick-wall castings.

WINIT (13mm, 9mm)

The wire is filled with classical Zr-Mn inoculant. Such an inoculant is most effective in the melts, rich in N2, with low sulphur content. It is especially effective in thick-wall  castings, made from nodular cast iron, but adding the inoculant should be limited.
