Application/properties: Multi-purpose electrode for assembly work, workshop and repair welding; also approved for rail joint welding. Smooth and clean weld blending into base metal without undercut. Good gap bridging properties. The electrode has a stable and concentrated arc and good suitability for AC welding. It is specially suited for root pass and positional welding. Welds are of X-ray quality.
