The national steel industry produces approximately 1.1 million tons of steel per year, in which process generates a solid residue called “scales”. The present work is a study of the feasibility of using such residue in manufacturing coatings for welding electrodes, replacing an iron oxide mineral more expensive, called micaceous iron oxide (MIO). The scales have approximately 68% iron by weight, which is equivalent to the iron content MIO holds (66 %), what gives the coating similar chemical and metallurgical properties. Besides, the scales have a granulometry in which 8% of the material is less than 500 microns, while the MIO has a granulometry in which 99% is less than that size. This is why metallurgical load balances and grinding test were carried out to obtain a suitable particle size for the manufacture of the electrode. The electrodes were evaluated by certificates welders; the weld beads obtained were subjected to tests in accordance to ensure final product quality. The results of these tests comply with AWS/ASME SFA-5.1/SFA-5.1M specification.
