| Description
and Applications |
| Heavy coated
basic type electrode for welding of nickel bearing steels for |
| low temperature
applications. It gives 2% Ni alloyed ductile weld metal |
| with high
crack resistant. Specifically formulated for easy slag removal, |
| strike
and re-strike characteristics and low spattering. |
| It is especially
suitable for welding of steel structures working under |
| dynamic
loads and low temperature services (-80ºC). Such applications |
| including
shipbuilding, chemical equipments, storage, piping and tanks |
| used in
the storage gases. Easy to handle in all positions except vertical |
| down. |
