General description
Cellulosic coated electrode for pipe and general welding
Gives high ductility root welds
Very deep penetration ensures sound root pass
Easy striking, easy slag release
High volume of generated gas eliminates porosity
Reduces problems from dirt and oil on surface
Current type
DC electr.+
Application advice
Preheating pipe material L360 (X52) required (acc.EN 1011-1)
Pipeclamps to be removed after finishing root pass,start welding hot pass within 5 min after root pass
Use electrodes directly from metal cans
