Welding Instruction
- Clean up the contaminations on the steel
- Dry the electrodes at 350~400°C for 60 minutes before welding
- Keep arc as short as possible. Take the back step method to prevent porosity at arc start and re-start. (Please refer to Appendix A)
- High heat input will lower the impact value. Please carefully select the welding current
- The preheat temperature for thick plate is 90~120°C
- It is ideal for welding in ASTM A226 (A, B), A235 (F, G), A236(C, E, F) and A302 steel
