Eles® C 8010

General description

Cellulosic coated electrode for vertical down pipe welding

Suitable for pipe with strengths in the range of X46 - X70

Can be used for root, fill and capping passes

Low susceptibility to wagon tracks, windows and pinholes

Good impact properties

Can be used for silicon-killed steels

Current type

DC electr. +

Application Advice

Preheating pipe material L360 and L480 (X56-X70) required acc.EN 1011-1

Pipeclamps to be removed after finishing root pass,start welding”hot pass”immediately (within 5 min.) after root pass

Use electrode directly from metal cans

Use Elex C 6010 for lower hardness in the root pass
