Product Description
Fully positional, basic coated, low hydrogen electrode depositing 2%Ni weld metal, exceptionally clean metal of radiographic quality with excellent de-slag and welder appeal. The addition of iron powder gives a recovery of 120%. Used on a variety of fabrications to match stringent classification requirements. Used extensively for low temperature fabrications where good notch toughness (60C) is required coupled with C.T.O.D. values. Typical material grades:- BS1501-224-Grade 490B, ASTM A302 Grades A&B, ASTM a333 Grade 6 pipe, ASTM A350 Grades LF1/LF2. In addition WB8018-C1 has been used for welding and repairing weathering steels.
