Description
Caractéristiques :
LKE-7018 is a low hydrogen type electrode for the welding of 490N/mm² grade high tensile steel. The welding can be done with high deposition rate, good X-ray soundness and mechanical properties.
Applications :
It is especially suitable for nuclear power stations, petroleum chemical plants, and heavy steel plates.
Notes sur l'utilisation :
1.Dry the electrodes at 300-350°C for 60 minutes and keep at 100-150°C before use.
2.Keep the arc as short as possible.
3.Take the back-step method to prevent blowholes at the arc starting.
