Classification:

• AWS/SFA-5.5: E 9018M
• IS-1395: E 63 BM 129Fe

Characteristics:

A hydrogen controlled, iron powder electrode for welding high tensile structural steels. It gives smooth arc, low spatter, easy slag detachability, medium penetration and welded joints are of radiographic quality. The weld metal exhibits high impact values at sub-zero temperatures.

Application:

Pressure vessels.
Chemical plants and machinery parts.
Equipment such as penstocks to be subjected to -50°C.
Heavy earthmoving machinery, fabrication.
Automobile parts.

Re-Dry Condition:

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