Low Alloy Electrodes for Low Temperature services
CLASSIFICATION : AWS/SFA-5.5: E 7018-A1
IS-1395: E 49BA 126Fe
IS-1395: E 49BA 126Fe
CHARACTERISTICS :
An iron powder, hydrogen controlled medium heavy coated electrode producing 0.50% Mo weld deposit. Electrode has high welding efficiency coupled with creep resistance properties at 525°C temperature and has excellent mechanical properties.
APPLICATION :
- Suitable for high pressure boiler tubes and plates.
- Fabrication for welding 0.50% Mo and 1% Cr-0.5% Mo steels used for elevated temperature services up to 525°C.
- suitable for fine grained and creep resistant steel welding.
RE-DRY CONDITION : Re-Dry the electrode at 250°C-300°C for one hour, for best results.
