The description of medium thickness electrodes with rutile coating is as follows:

• Highly recommended for welding light metal constructions and thin carbon sheets.
• Suitable for welding non-alloy steel with a maximum carbon content of 0.25%.
• Used in light constructions operated at temperatures up to 0̊ Celsius.
• The arc is stable and spatter is very low, both in direct and alternating current.
• The weld bead has an aesthetic appearance and the slag is easy to remove.
