An all positional, basic coated, low hydrogen, iron powder electrode which deposits weld metal having good mechanical properties. The welds are of radiographic quality.

The electrode is characterised by stable are, low spatter, easy deslagging even in deep grooves. Weld metal is resistant to cold cracking due to low diffusible hydrogen content. Weld beads are smooth &regular.

Suitable for wide range of applications involving heavy fabrication and joints subject to dynamic loading and heavy impact.

It is specially recommended for applications where good impact strength at sub-zero temperature (-50°C) is called for. Typical applications include pressure vessels, pen stocks, storage tanks, offshore platforms, plant and equipments for low temperature service.
