Welding Wires

Kemfast Aerospace is pleased to announce their agreement to exclusively supply approved Aerospace Welding Wires on behalf of United States Welding Corporation in the UK and throughout Europe. We can provide the OEM’s and sub-contractors with local stock of welding filler wires at competitive prices.

As Part of this agreement, we have invested considerably in a stocking programme, and now supply alloys such as Jethete, C263, NC 80/20, 347, MARM 918, FSX 414, Hastelloy X and several grades of Titanium for delivery next working day throughout the UK. For further information, please call our sales team on +44 (0)870 800 5525 or email us on sales@kemfast.com for further information.

Unlike commercial wire drawing in which contaminating lubricants are used, the MC GRADE Process uses no contaminating lubricants. Thus, the most common source of impurity in welding wire manufacturing is eliminated.

In addition, any residual surface contamination of the wire is mechanically removed at various stages in the wire forming process. This ensures that contamination is not embedded in the wire as in commercial wire drawing. At final inspection, the wire is checked for chemical composition and cleanliness and must pass a strict bead-on-plate weldability test before shipment. This assures that welds are free of oxides, slag inclusions and other defects.

Advances in trace element control, weld usability testing and alloy verification have been applied to the MC-GRADE version of these alloys, for improved reliability. Many of these advances have been incorporated into AMS specifications.
