Classification:

AWS/SFA-5.4: E 312-16
IS 5206: E 29.9 R 26

Characteristics:

This electrode gives a 30/10 deposit with a two-phase structure having a high number of ferrites in an austenitic matrix. It is suitable for carbon steels, low alloy steels, dissimilar materials, and even unknown steels. Recommended for difficult-to-weld applications such as leaf springs and steels requiring higher strength.

Application:

• Ideally suitable for welding difficult-to-weld steels like high hardenable tool, die, and spring steels.
• Used for welding 13% Mn steels, free cutting steels, and high temperature steels.
• Excellent for dissimilar joints between stainless steel and high carbon steels.
• Applied in surfacing for metal-to-metal wear areas, hot working tools, and furnace components.
• Suitable for rebuilding chemical agitator blades, shafts, rolling mill spindles, and bucket lips.

Re-Dry Condition:

Re-Dry the electrode at 250°C for 1 hrs before use.
