SUPERLET – 18 (SPL)
SUPERLET – 18 (SPL)
DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS: SUPERLET-18 (SPL) represents unique features which every welder and welding engineer looks for on shop floor and at erection site: Ease of operation in all position Smooth and stable arc which is easy to strike & restrike, combined with low spatter and with due control on molten pool Slag detachability with little effort Finely rippled bed with regular profile Welds of consistent X-ray quality A higher level of metal recovery 110% Resistance to moisture pick-up Weld metal possesses excellent mechanical properties and displays resistance to cracking caused by heavy stresses and hydrogen, it displays remarkable impact resistance at sub-zero temperatures down to minus 50 °C.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS: Boilers Pumps and Compressors Hortonspheres Off-shore drilling rigs & Platforms Pressure Vessels Frigates & Submarines Penstocks Blast furnace shells Rotary klin Shells Mahicnery for earth moving & road building Bridges Rail wagons & coaches etc.
Precautions:
- Store in a dry place.
- Redry the electrodes at 250°C for one hour before use and place the baked electrodes in carrying oven at 90°C while in use.
- Maintain appropriate current and short arc.
- Remove oil, grease, dust & rust from parent metal.
- Do not handle the electrodes with moisture greasy hand.
