Askaynak AS R-143 Rutile Welding Electrode 2.50x350

It has a thick cover with rutile character. Compared to AS R-116, the mechanical properties of the weld metal obtained are higher due to the higher amount of basic component in the cover. The weld metal shows high resistance to cracking. Slag is easily removed and high quality, smooth weld seams are obtained. The electrode is easy to ignite and re-ignite before welding.

Note: Re-drying temperature is 70-80°C / 1 hour.

It is a general purpose electrode for welding low and medium carbon structural steels, especially St33 to St52.3. Other applications include machinery, bridge constructions and boiler production, body manufacturing, steel furniture, iron joinery works, welding of thin sheets, welding of chassis, auto body sheets and small scale repair applications.
