Elerep® 312

General Description

A rutile-basic coated high CrNi-alloyed all position electrode

Most versatile electrode for repair welding

Specially developed for welding steels difficult to weld such as:

- armour plate

- austenitic Mn-steel

- high C-steel

Excellent weldability and self releasing slag

Weldable on AC and DC+ polarity

Not sensitive for porosity
