nVent CADDY 65PLUSF2 150PLUSF20 CADWELD® Plus Exothermic Weld Metal Charge, Copper Oxide Aluminum

The nVent CADDY 65PLUSF2 150PLUSF20 is a CADWELD® Plus exothermic welding material formulated from copper oxide and aluminum, engineered to create permanent, low-resistance electrical connections through an exothermic molecular-bonding reaction. This F20-size weld metal charge ships in a 150 g quantity with a protective cap, and is available in Dark Blue or Dark Green color-coded packaging so installers can quickly identify and confirm the correct charge size on the jobsite. Because the copper oxide and aluminum charge is pre-measured and factory sealed, installers can move from one connection to the next without stopping to weigh or portion weld metal in the field. Electrical contractors and utility crews rely on this weld metal to form durable grounding and bonding connections that will not loosen, corrode, or increase in resistance over the life of the installation.

Key Features

  • F20 Weld Metal Charge: Sized for use within the CADWELD® Plus exothermic welding system to create permanent, molecular-bonded electrical connections rather than a mechanical or crimped joint.
  • Copper Oxide and Aluminum Composition: The exothermic reaction mixture ignites and fuses to deposit solid copper directly at the connection point, forming a weld that becomes part of the conductors it joins.
  • 150 g Net Weight: Individually measured weld metal charge sized for CADWELD Plus mold applications, helping ensure a consistent, repeatable weld from charge to charge.
  • Dark Blue or Dark Green Color Coding: Available in two color-coded packaging options so installers can quickly confirm the correct charge size before welding, reducing the chance of using the wrong weld metal on the jobsite.
  • Includes Cap: Ships with a cap for secure handling and storage prior to use, helping protect the charge until it is ready to be loaded into the mold.
  • CADWELD® Plus Series: Part of the nVent CADDY CADWELD Plus line of exothermic welding materials engineered for electrical grounding and bonding connections.

nVent CADDY 65PLUSF20 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What is the difference between the CADWELD Plus 150PLUSF20 and 65PLUSF20 weld metal charges?
Both are the same F20-size CADWELD Plus weld metal charge, 150 g of copper oxide and aluminum, with a cap. The difference is the color-coded packaging: 150PLUSF20 is Dark Blue and 65PLUSF20 is Dark Green. Crews use the color to confirm they have grabbed the right charge size before loading a mold.
2) Can I use the CADWELD Plus F20 charge in any exothermic mold?
No. The F20 charge is sized for CADWELD Plus mold applications specifically. The charge size has to match the mold's cavity and the conductor combination the mold is cut for, so pulling an F20 into a mold calling for a different size will give you a bad weld. Match the mold's specified charge size, not just the brand.
3) Do I need anything else besides the F20 charge to make a CADWELD Plus connection?
The charge is only the consumable. You still need the correct CADWELD Plus graphite mold for your conductor sizes and connection geometry, plus the CADWELD Plus control unit used to initiate the charge. The 150 g F20 charge supplies the copper oxide and aluminum weld metal and nothing else.
4) How much weld metal is in a CADWELD Plus F20 charge, and is it pre-measured?
Each F20 charge holds 150 g of copper oxide and aluminum weld metal, factory sealed and pre-measured. Nobody weighs or portions anything in the field, which is what keeps weld-to-weld results consistent across a grounding grid.
5) What kinds of connections is CADWELD Plus F20 weld metal used for?
Grounding and bonding work: copper-to-copper and copper-to-steel connections, substation and utility grounding systems, cathodic protection installations, and general commercial and industrial grounding. The reaction deposits solid copper at the joint so the connection becomes part of the conductors rather than a crimped or bolted mechanical joint.
6) Why choose an exothermic weld over a mechanical grounding connector?
An exothermic weld fuses copper into the conductors, so there is nothing to back off, corrode at a contact surface, or drift up in resistance over time. Mechanical lugs and crimps rely on clamping pressure that can relax. The tradeoff is that exothermic work needs the correct mold and the matching charge size on hand, while a mechanical connector is tool-and-go. For buried grid, substation, and cathodic protection connections that will never be inspected again, the weld is the usual call.
7) Does the CADWELD Plus F20 charge come with a cap, and how should it be stored before use?
Yes, each charge ships with a protective cap. Keep the cap on until the charge is loaded into the mold; it protects the weld metal during handling and storage on the truck or in the gang box.
