Abstract: A method is disclosed for making an adhesive-coated high strength steel reinforcing member comprising the steps of: providing a steel member; austenitizing the steel member; passing the steel member through an adhesive coating bath wherein a uniform, continuous adhesive coating is applied at a rate sufficient to form a quenched structure of martensite, bainite or mixtures thereof; and, heating the coated steel member so as to effect drying and curing of the adhesive coating, and tempering of the steel member. The product obtained by this method is also disclosed.

Abstract: Directed to a welding flux and covered welding electrodes, and, more particularly, to covered electrodes having a nickel-chromium-iron alloy core and a special flux coating or covering, which electrode is capable of joining similar and dissimilar metals and which produces, in all positions, sound welds free from cracking and porosity and deposits having excellent corrosion resistance.

Abstract: Nickel-chromium-silicon steel electrode for arc welding provides maraging stainless steel weld deposits having desirable strength, toughness and corrosion resistance in age-hardened condition. Electrode arc can be shielded with inert gas or with lime-cryolite-titania flux containing specially controlled proportions of manganese.
