Arc Studwelded Refractory Anchors

MATERIAL:

Standard in low carbon steel and 304/305 stainless. Monel, inconel, and other grades of stainless steel are available.

PLATING:

Plating is not standard. Cadmium to ASTM A 165, type TS and zinc to ASTM B 633 are available. Non-weldable plating is removed from the weld end to avoid contamination of the weld.

ANNEALING:

Low carbon steel can be annealed to a maximum of 75 Rockwell B and stainless steel to a maximum of 90 Rockwell B.

WELD BASE:

Solid flux is provided where required.

STUD LENGTH:

CONTINENTAL arc stud length designations are BEFORE WELD. AFTER WELD lengths are shown in the table.

STUD DIAMETER	APPROX. REDUCTION
3/16" thru 1/2" 5/8" thru 7/8" 7/8" and over	1/8" 3/16" 1/4"
1/8" wide rectangulars	1/8"

FERRULES

All orders include ferrules when they are required.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE PROPER REFRACTORY ANCHORS

STYLE: (See Table #2)

MATERIAL:

CONTINENTAL arc studwelded refractory anchors reduce costs and downtime and increase production through speedier installation and improved product quality. Arc studwelding systems are portable and require minimal instruction or maintenance for use. Speed of anchor application and ease of use reduce labor requirements and eliminate other complicated fastening systems while maintaining excellent weld quality and improved refractory holding power.

The temperatures indicated are those encountered in continuous service. Slightly higher temperatures can be withstood if the fluctuation is cyclic in nature. For applications above 2500° F, the anchors can be made of inconel or other special metals.
