Iron Powder is used as a coating material in stick electrodes and as filler material in flux-cored wires. It improves the yield and efficiency of electrodes. It is most commonly used in low hydrogen type electrodes (E7018).‍

A small addition to all types of stick electrodes generally improves weld metal recovery. Stable chemistry, uniform particle size distribution and low impurities are critical to the quality of Iron powders.

‍Good quality Iron Powder helps in a smoother arc with less splatter.

‍SLM provides superior quality Sponge and Atomized Iron Powders for welding applications.
