DUROARC 16TC Low Hydrogen 3.2mm electrode

Low Hydrogen rutile basic electrodeThe DUROARC 16TC is a smooth running low hydrogen electrode which is developed for all positional welding except vertical down This electrode gives an excellent stability of weld characteristics even with poor fit up is encountered The Duralloy 16TC twin coated fluxing is a unique process which separates those flux constituents that impair arc stability to the outside of the flux coating The unusually stable arc characteristics make this electrode ideally suited to root pass and positional welding The only electrode in the Duralloy Low Hydrogen range that can be used on an AC power source with a low open circuit voltageSPECIFICATIONSTensile Strength630 MPaYield Strength520 MPaElongation31 Charpy V Notch 20C120JAPPLICATION Heavy section joint design Structural steel Plant maintenance Carbon steels up to 4WELDING PROCEDURES POLARITY DC OR ACArc striking and restriking are exceptional characteristics of the Duralloy 16TC Area to be welded should be clean conventional stringerbead welding technique is bestAWS A 51 E7016 H10
