Cellulose Coated Electrode Data Sheet

This document provides information on a cellulose coated electrode for vertical down welds in large diameter cross-country pipelines. The electrode contains 35% organic materials that form a shielding gas during welding, providing a concentrated deep penetrating arc and fast-freezing slag. It is suited for DC+ root runs using a stringer bead technique on a variety of steel materials, including mild steels, pressure vessel steels, and high strength steels. The weld metal properties include a typical tensile strength of 580 N/mm2, proof stress of 450 N/mm2, and impact energy of 50J at -30°C.

PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION

The electrode contains some 35% of organic materials which in the arc transform
into a shielding gas and contributes to a concentrated deep penetrating arc with a
fast-freezing slag. The flux is extruded onto a mild steel core wire using only
sodium silicates which ensures coating strength.

WELDING
FEATURES
OF THE
ELECTRODE

The electrode is suited for use on DC+ only and is ideal for full penetration root
runs using a controlled root gap and root face and a stringer bead technique.
Slight grinding of the stringer bead with wire brushes prevents lateral inclusions
followed by a hot pass that particularly on high stressed and or high carbon steels
promotes hydrogen diffusion and thus reduces the probability of hydrogen
cracking.
Cross country pipelines - on site storage tanks in following materials - mainly root
pass:
