DETAILS

Low-Hydrogen Carbon Steel Welding Electrodes for High-Strength Steel

Features

  • Low-hydrogen potassium coating providing superior crack and X-ray resistance
  • AC and DCEP dual-purpose versatility with excellent arc stability
  • All-position welding capability with easy slag removal and minimal spatter
  • Outstanding mechanical properties and low-temperature impact toughness
  • Excellent bead appearance and penetration for root pass welding

Typical Applications

  • Medium carbon steel and low-alloy high-strength steel structures
  • Pressure vessel and industrial boiler fabrication
  • Shipbuilding and offshore oil platform construction
  • Bridges, heavy machinery, and structural steel frameworks
  • High-pressure pipeline welding and critical load-bearing joints

Welding Positions

  • PA / PB / PC / PD / PE / PF

 

WARNING

  • The electrodes must be re-dried at 350–380°C for 1 hour before welding.
  • Rust, oil, moisture, and other contaminants must be removed from the weld area before welding.
