How to CAD Weld on Ductile Iron Pipe

Thermite or CAD welding on Ductile iron pipe is used to bond pipe joints for cathodic protection. This is one of the best ways to prevent corrosion of your project’s water infrastructure. In this Iron Strong episode, Jerry Regula, McWane Ductile Product Engineer, shows when, why, and how to properly CAD weld on DI pipe.
A corrosion mitigation plan may extend the longevity of your pipe well beyond its 100-year projected lifespan. If your plan requires cathodic protection, you and your crew need CAD welding training to complete the process safely and efficiently. To learn more please check out Jerry’s full blog post for all the details about CAD welding pipe.

@@everythinghuntingohio8012 from where?

[@McWaneDuctilePipe]

Yes, it is possible, but you must follow the correct procedures and use the right welding rod material (electrodes), usually a nickel-iron composition.
