1. Mild Steel Electrodes

2. J426 AWS E6016

 Carbon steel electrodes with low hydrogen potassium type coating, the weld metal has superior mechanical properties and high crack resistant properties it can be welded on both AC and DC. Welding can be done in all position. When used AC, the stability is inferior a little to that used DC.

 3. Chemical Composition of melting metal

C: 0.1%max

Mn: 1.25%max

Si: 0.90%max

S: 0.035%max.

P: 0.040%max.

4. Reference Current:

Diameter(mm)          Current

2.5                          60-90

3.2                          90-130

4.0                         150-190

5.0                          180-230

5. Pay attention:

Before welding, it is necessary to clean the work piece and remove the impurities such as oil, grease rust and moisture, bake the electrode at the temperature of about 300 degree.
