TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Ideally suitable for vertical up and overhead welding of radiographic soundness in high-pressure boilers and pipelines.
• Frequently used for final ‘fill’ run of groove-joints due to shiny appearance and least spatter.
• Also applicable for repair welding and surfacing Naval steels, Boiler Steels and Structural steels
