I am not aware of a cast iron rod for oxy acetylene welding, I am for arc welding, For cast, I use a brazing rod, a brass or copper alloy, but what do I know. If there is a cast rod available, it would be the same process, get the cast you are welding hot almost to the point of melting, bring in the rod, heat it at the same place and bring both to a melting point. Work from that point along the crack or joint you are welding.

You need not use brazing rod for case iron welding. You get arc welding electrodes for cast iron. Use appropriate grade of rod for your case iron under welding.
What else can I help you with?
Why can acetylene torch be used to weld metals together?
Acetylene torches can be used to weld metals together because they have a higher temperature than the metal's melting point.
How do you do a chemical weld?
Oxy-acetylene is concidered a chemical weld.
Why can an acetylene torch be used to weld metals together?
it is an alkyne that burns at about 3500 degrees Celsius, much higher then most metals melting point.
What type of electrode can you weld cast iron with?
nickel
How can you weld the pump case which is made with cast iron?

Did welders use oxygen gas to weld anything?
Yes, oxygen is used in a process called oxygen- acetylene welding and brazing. Oxygen- acetylene welding mixes the two gases to producea flame to melt the metal to be welded. Afiller materialisfed into the "puddle" to form the weld. It is used normally on thin metals and cast metals. Brazing is much the same but the filler material is coated in a flux to keep impurities out of the weld. It is used on cast steels and cast iron.
One should never cut or weld directly against?
You should not weld on concrete, as it can explode if heated
What is the procedure of oxy acetylene?
The oxy-acetylene welding process involves using a torch to mix oxygen and acetylene gases in a controlled manner to generate a high-temperature flame. The flame is then directed onto the metal workpiece to melt it, while a filler rod can be added if necessary to create a weld joint. Proper safety measures, such as wearing protective gear and ensuring proper ventilation, should be followed when using oxy-acetylene equipment.
Can you weld a cracked cast iron pot belly stove?
yes, with a cast iron rod and an oxy-fuel set up or with a nickel rod and an arc machine
How do you put acetylene in a sentence with at least 10 words?
Oxy-acetylene burners produce a very hot flame, that will melt metal.
What are uses of each one of the oxyacetylene flames?
There are three distinct types of oxy-acetylene flames, usually termed: -Neutral: The neutral flame will usually have no chemical effect on the metal being welded. -Carburizing (or excess acetylene): It will cause an increase in the carbon content of the weld metal. -Oxidizing (or excess oxygen ): It will oxidize or "burn" some of the metal being welded. The type of flame produced depends upon the ratio of oxygen to acetylene in the gas mixture which leaves the torch tip.
Can malleable iron be welded?
Yes, malleable iron can be welded using certain welding techniques such as shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW), or oxy-acetylene welding. Proper preparation and preheating are crucial to ensure a successful weld.
