Technical specifications:

• Tensile strength Re [N/mm2]: >320
• Strength Rm [N/mm2]: >510
• Elongation A5 [%]: >30
• Impact toughness Kv [J]: >55 J (20°C), >30 J (-190°C)
• Electrode type (coating): rutile
• Ferrite content: FN = approximately 5
• Drying: 300 - 350°C / 2 hours

The rutile electrode is designed for welding stainless steels, austenitic, unstable austenitic with Nb or Ti, as well as ferritic stainless steels from the 13% Cr group. It provides very good arc ignition, both primary and secondary (even cold). It ensures a stable arc and smooth formation of the welding arc with self-peeling slag. The welding result is resistant to thermal cracking and free from dark oxidized high-temperature surfaces. The metallic welding material is resistant to intergranular corrosion up to 350°C. The electrode performs excellently in vertical welding and allows trouble-free execution of welding in the PF position, producing welds with ideal, flat geometry. During welding coating, the metallic welding material tends to straighten the edges, facilitating proper welding.

Application: Food and chemical industry. Widely used in the production and installation of architectural and decorative metal constructions for residential and public buildings: protective railings, frames, plumbing fittings, etc.
