Explosive welding Clad metals are a low-resistance, high-strength joint that allows the welding of two dissimilar metals. They are for use in high-current, high-temperature, and mechanical stress environments.
In the potroom, steel anode yokes are pre-welded to the aluminium anode rods using a bimetallic or trimetallic clads. This anode clad is a preformed aluminium/steel joint allowing the welding of the aluminium rod to the steel yoke, and forms a low-resistance, high-strength joint to withstand the elevated temperatures, mechanical abuse, and high current density found in the process.
Cathode/collector bars are connected to aluminum flexibles of the busbar system through welded or bolted aluminum/steel or aluminum copper cathode clads. The anode ring busbar is connected to the aluminium anode stem via aluminium/copper clads.
