Description and Applications

H13 is a retile type covered electrode for all position welding. The bead appearance is good and penetration is shallow. Arc is stable, very few spatters and slag is easy to detach.

Welding of mild steel sheet for ships, rolling stock and structures, and finish welding of heavy structure works.
 
Guideline in Usage
1.

Electrode should be re-dried at 70 120℃ for one hour.

2.

Pay attention not to exceed the range of proper current.

3. If slag detachability is not good due to welding base metals with narrow groove, please use lime Titania type electrodes, ex. HK32, H03 instead of this electrode.
