Classification:

• AWS/SFA-5.15: Est

Characteristics:

A hydrogen controlled, medium heavy coated electrode designed for laying non-machinable weld deposits on cast iron. Preheating of components is recommended for heavy and complicated sections. Provides strong and rigid weld joints.

Applications:

• Welding mild steel to cast iron parts.
• Repair works on cast iron where machining is not critical and strength is the primary requirement.

Re-Dry Condition:

Re-dry the electrode at 150°C for 1 hour before use.

Welding Precaution:

• Clean the weld area thoroughly, removing all surface contaminants.
• For heavy and complicated sections, preheat to a minimum temperature of 400°C is recommended.
