GEEFLUX 505

IDENTIFICATION
GEEFLUX 505

CLASSIFICATION
AWS/SFA 5.17M : F7AO EM12K / F7AZ EM12K
AWS/SFA 5.17M : F48AZ EM14K / F48AO EM14K
AWS/SFA 5.17: F7PZ EL8

CHARACTERSITICS
•    Agglomerated rutile alumina type flux.
•    Recommended for single and multilayer welding of structural steels.
•    The flux is resistant to porosity and slag detachability are excellent.
•    The consumptions of flux is small and usually is about 1.1kg for 1.0kg of wire.
