Description / Abstract:
Form:
This specification covers a corrosion and heat resistant steel
in the form of covered welding electrodes.
Application:
Primarily for shielded-metal-arc welding of parts fabricated
from steels of similar composition, particularly when the weld zone
is required to have strength and corrosion and heat resistance
comparable to that of the parent metal.
Classification:
Electrodes covered by this specification are classified as
follows and shall be suitable for the following usability
characteristics:
When DC is specified, reverse polarity (electrode positive) is
required.
Type "A" electrodes shall be supplied unless Type "B" is
ordered.
