Blue Demon ERCuSi-A Silicon Bronze TIG Welding Rods
Blue Demon ERCuSi-A Silicon Bronze is primarily used for MIG, TIG, and gas welding of copper, copper-silicon and copper-zinc base metals to themselves and to steel. It is an excellent choice for joining plain or galvanized sheet steel to metal as well as other coated steels. Typical applications are surfacing areas subject to erosion.
Blue Demon ERCuSi-A Properties:
- Tensile Strength, kpsi: 50 min
- Elongation in 2" (%): 65%
- Brinell Hardness: 80-100
