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
DC electr. +
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
