I work in a steel mill, and we received a shipment of scrap listed as "Monel plus flux". Upon inspection, it was obvious they were SMAW electrodes, of various diameters and suppliers.
Our concern is that the flux covering may adversely affect our slag chemistry in our electic arc furnace. A search of the web got me in contact with one of the electrode manufacturers and I obtained the composition of the flux.
However, there are also electrodes coded "AGA X-56 ENICU-4". The electrodes have a black flux covering. I immediately thought of AGA-Linde Gas as the supplier manufacturer, but a call to them revealed that they no longer manufacture welding electrodes. I need to find out the composition of the flux covering. Can anyone help me determine the origin of these rods? A contact number at the manufacturer would be extrememly helpful. Thanks in advance.
