| Description
and Applications |
| Basic coated
electrode designed to improve deposition rate and bead |
| appearance
for welding mild and low alloyed steels under condition of high |
| restraint,
A and E grade ship steels, 17Mn4 and 19Mn5 pressure vessel |
| steels,
pipe steels and cast steels from GS 38 to GS 60. An iron powder |
| addition
in the coating gives a metal recovery of approximately 120%. |
| Distinguished
by outstanding welding characteristics such as excellent out |
| of position
weld ability, good striking and re striking properties, stable arc |
| and no spattering,
easy slag removal, homogenous and smooth bead with |
| low hydrogen
content. |
