Overview

CADWELD T403 Mold Sealer

Sometimes, molten metal leaks out of a CADWELD mold around the cable strands, especially on 4/0, 7-strand cable. What can be done to mitigate this common occurrence? That's where CADWELD T403 Mold Sealer comes in!

Especially after a mold has been used 15 to 20 times, the cable mold openings may become worn. After the mold has been locked on the cables, apply a ring of CADWELD mold sealer around the cable where it enters the mold. Don't force it into the mold! If it gets in the weld cavity, the molten metal will cause it to burn and give off gases which can cause an improper weld or spattering of molten welding material.

CADWELD mold sealer is ideal for sealing hot or cold molds to reduce leakage from large stranded conductors and prolongs useful mold life when the cable opening has become worn. Used in small quantities, the 2-lbs. contained in the re-sealable tub will last a long time.

CADWELD T403 Mold Sealer application is REQUIRED on certain ERICO CADWELD molds, such as Types HA, HB, HC, VG and VN. Order yours from DX Engineering.
