About Classic Electrodes (India) Limited

The company offers a wide range of products, including general-purpose electrodes, stainless steel electrodes, low hydrogen electrodes, MIG wires, and other specialised welding consumables. Its focus on alloy development, quality, and design has helped it cater to diverse industrial needs and deliver reliable engineering solutions.
