SJ301 is an agglomerated calcium-silicate type flux with a basicity index of BIIW 1.0. The flux is spherical granular, grain size is from 10 to 60 mesh. A short slag is produced, thus allowing circumferential welding on small-diameter work pieces without the risk of uncontrolled slag. SJ301 can be welded with AC or DC at up to 1200A (single-wire process). The production of large pipes (especially spiral pipe welding) is a typical application for this flux. Relatively high manganese pick-up is obtained, thus allowing the flux be used with wires with a low Mn content. The special production method ensures that the flux has low moisture pick-up and granular stability. Flux shall be capable of meeting the applied requirements. As the bulk density is low, so is the consumption rate.
