Drying welding rod in a barbeque grill?
You would have the temperature capability however propane fired heat is
loaded with moisture. It would be like trying to dry something with steam. I don't think it would be as effective as electric heat. If you need to dry your low hydrogen rod then you must be working on some sort of welding code job?? Otherwise just use the rod out of the pack and keep sealed as much as possible. I am trying to be a bit diplomatic about dry rod. It is not really that important unless you are doing critical work with low alloy steels or welding steel over half inch thick. Randy "Ignoramus29446" wrote in message .. . I would like to know if 7018 rod can be dried in a gas grill. Mine is relatively nice, made of stainless steel, and can do up to about 600 degrees F. 1. Would it effectively dry the rod 2. Would stainless steel of this grill be damaged by several hours at hot temperature. Thanks! i |
