Medium and High Tensile Steel
TENSAL-MH (R)
AWS: SFA 5.5 E9018M H4R
EN ISO CODE:
Tensal-MH(R) is hydrogen controlled, basic coated, moisture resistant electrode, depositing a high strength weld metal. The electrode possesses excellent operating characteristics and is suitable for welding in all positions. The extra low hydrogen content reduces susceptibility from hydrogen induced cracking. The weld metal possesses high strength together with good notch toughness. Ideally suited for welding fine-grained steels, high strength steels. Q&T steels used in the fabrication of structures, bridges, penstocks and other components.
