For joining weldable types of cast iron such as grey, ductile, malleable and steel to cast iron. Jupiter MIG is a special alloy which permits wire feed welding on cast iron for joining, build-up or overlays. It will also join carbon steel to cast iron. With proper procedures, deposits are machinable with no undercutting. This alloy allows high speed weld deposits on cast iron. Download PDF

Applications
Jupiter MIG is a special alloy which permits wire feed welding on cast iron for joining, build-up or overlays.
It will also join carbon steel to cast iron.
Very good machinability
Recommended Settings
Use Reverse Polarity (DCEP)
Recommended Settings:
.045 Diameter – 19-22 volts, 150-170 amps, 25 gas flow (ft3/hr)
Best Practices
Appropriate cast iron preheat improves machinability and reduces stress in base metal.
Use stringer beads with minimal weave.
Peen to stress relieve.
Pure Argon provides optimum running characteristics.
We recommend Gemini Anti-Spatter spray for lasting protection of your contact tip and MIG nozzle (see chemical aids in Abrasives & Metal Working products section).
