Product description

Suitable for welding fabrication of dynamically loaded steel constructions, bridges, shipbuilding, pipelines, pressure vessels, tanks, boilers, and machinery where high toughness is required. Weld metal recovery is approximately 115%. Produces smooth and clean welds that merge seamlessly into the base metal without undercuts. Offers good gap-bridging properties. Welds are of X-ray quality. Also suitable for depositing buffer layers on high-carbon steels.
