Features
Properties and Applications
Medium coated, cellulosic electrode, especially designed for welding of pipes and plates in all positions at low welding currents. Due to its high penetration, particularly suitable for root pass and fill passes in vertical down direction. Used in pipe-line construction, shipbuilding, storage vessels and assembly works. DCEN (-) is ideal in root passes and DCEP (+) is recommended for fill and cap passes in vertical down position.
