Quickly pour the loose welding material powder into
the CADWELD EXOLON mold.
NOTE: Welding material is an exothermic
mixture and reacts to produce hot molten
material with temperatures in excess of 2500
degrees Fahrenheit (1400 degrees Celsius) and
a localized release of smoke. Avoid direct eye
contact with “flash” of light from ignition of
starting material. Avoid inhalation of smoke/
fumes.

Next, take an igniter pin and place it halfway into the
small hole on the side of the mold, with the loop side
facing into the hole. Spread the wire leads.
