NIKKO STEEL C10 E6010 ELECTRODES X 2.0KG VAC PACK

The electrode contains some 35% of organic materials which in the arc transform into a shielding gas and contributes to a concentrated deep penetrating arc with a fast-freezing slag. The flux is extruded onto a mild steel core wire using only sodium silicates which ensures coating strength.

WELDING FEATURES OF THE ELECTRODE

The electrode is ideal for full penetration root runs using a controlled root gap and root face and a stringer bead technique. Slight grinding of the stringer bead with wire brushes prevents lateral inclusions followed by a hot pass that particularly on high stressed and or high carbon steels promotes hydrogen diffusion and thus reduces the probability of hydrogen cracking
