Description and Applications

HK32 is a lime titanic type electrode, which contained iron powder. The deposited rate is higher than G03. Re-arc and re-striking is excellent. The slag detachability is also good with beautiful bead appearance. Welding of ships, vehicles, steel structures, and general structures.

Guideline in Usage

1. Re-dry the electrodes at 70120℃ for one hour before use
   
2. Excessively high currents and wide weaving can deteriorate the X-ray quality. Use optimum current and limit weaving to 2.5 times the diameter of electrode.
