Revishield® 72Т-1

General description

Revishield® 72T-1 is an Revishield consumable used for electrogas welding (EGW)

Vertishield is the Wutmarc name for its vertical-up, self-shielded, single pass electrogas arc welding process

This process does not use an external shielding gas

Vertishield welds are made by two methods: the consumable guide and the moving shoe process

Suggestions for use

The moving shoe (dam) welding can be used with either a gapped V-groove or square butt plate

Material from 9.5 to 100 mm plate thickness and unlimited length can be welded

The consumable quide process is intended tot weld joints less than three feet long

Copper retaining dams extend the full length of the joint
