WESTWARD 41R178 Stick Electrode for Cast Iron
This 14-inch stick electrode carries AWS ENiFe-Cl classification for welding cast iron to carbon steel or cast iron to cast iron. The 5/32-inch diameter suits SMAW processes with DCEP current. Supplied as a 1 lb package for workshop and repair tasks.
Sustained-load behaviour of ENiFe-Cl core
The electrode delivers a minimum tensile strength of 58 ksi and an as-welded range of 58 to 84 ksi. Minimum yield strength is 43 ksi with an as-welded range of 43 to 63 ksi. These figures reflect performance across the full weld length rather than a short test coupon.
Check your setup before ordering
Verify that your power source supports DCEP output for SMAW and that the joint design matches cast-iron-to-steel or cast-iron-to-cast-iron applications. Confirm you can store and handle 14-inch electrodes safely. This product carries California Proposition 65 warnings for cancer and reproductive harm.

Questions about this item
Does the 5/32 in diameter electrode produce heavy fumes or heat during long stick-welding sessions?
The 5/32 in ENiFe-Cl rod runs on DCEP current; fume and heat levels depend on your machine amperage setting and ventilation, not on the electrode itself.
What welding machine and polarity do I need to run this ENiFe-Cl rod?
A stick welder (SMAW) capable of DCEP output and an amperage range suited to 5/32 in electrodes is required.
Will this 14 in cast-iron rod weld properly on older mild-steel plates I already have?
Yes, the ENiFe-Cl classification is approved for cast iron to carbon steel and cast iron to cast iron joints.
