Electrodes for Low Temperature Service

It is low hydrogen & low carbon electrode depositing 1.0Ni - 0.25Mo - 0.02V weld metal. Weld metal possesses excellent strength together with toughness at subzero temperatures. It is ideally suited for welding low carbon grain-refined steels, nickel steels, normalized, and tempered steels. Typical applications include storage tanks for liquefied gases like Ammonia, distillers in coke oven batteries and petrochemical industries. Also suitable for welding heavy sections and highly restrained joints subjected to dynamic loading, impact and severe service conditions.

1. Re-dry the electrodes at 250-300°C for one hour.

2. Use smallest size of electrode possible.

3. Use low current, short arc and stringer beads.
