Description and Applications

HD150L is an ilmenite type electrode for all position welding, especially vertical-up and overhead welding. X-ray performance and mechanical properties are excellent.

Welding of parts where the reliability is required, as for ships, vehicles, buildings, bridges, high-pressure containers and the other general structures made of mild steel.

 
Guideline in Usage
1. The electrodes should be re-dried at 70 ∼ 120℃ for 30 ∼ 60 minutes before use.  Excessive moisture absorption may result in some porosity and more spatters.
2. Pay attention not to exceed the range of proper currents. Welding with excessive current not only lowers X-ray performance, but also causes increase of spatter, undercut and insufficient slag covering.
