Cellulose Coated Electrode For Vertical Down Welds In High Strength Large Diameter Cross-Country Pipelines
C-10Mo
CLASSIFICATION
AWS A5.5 E7010-A1 | EN ISO 2560-A E 38 Z Mo C
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
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 suited for use on DC+ and is ideal for both full penetration root runs using a controlled root gap and root face and a stringer bead technique and the capping pass. 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 induced cracking.
