Product description:
- A reliable, general purpose electrode for manual metal arc welding of carbon steels, carbon manganese steels and fine-grained carbon manganese steels with elevated yield strength.
- OK 48.00 deposits a tough, crack-resistant weld metal.
- The coating is of the low moisture absorption type.
- High welding speed in the vertical-up position.
- OK 48.00 is insensitive to the composition of the base material within fairly wide limits.
- The electrode can be used for welding structures where difficult stress conditions cannot be avoided.
Characteristics:
- H4 R approved
- Low diffusible hydrogen to reduce the risk for cold cracking
- Outstanding low moisture pick up
- High efficiency bringing productivity
- Extremely good weldability in vertical up position
- Exceptional weld appearance
