Welding electrodes UONI 13/55 Plasma E7018-1

Terms of use
- designed for welding in all spatial positions, except vertical down one, of critical structures and pipelines made of carbon and low-alloy steels
with a tensile strength of 530 MPa to 680 MPa, especially if it is necessary to ensure high resistance of welded joints to cold cracks
Special properties
- they are characterized by high strength of the weld metal, with special metallurgical purity and low hydrogen content in the deposited metal
- the possibility of alternating current welding eliminates the effect of magnetic arc blow
- stable electrode metal transfer during welding ensures improved
weld joints formation - the slag does not flow into the welding bath, an even seam is formed,
and the resulting slag crust is easy to remove - deposition rate factor: 0,18 – 0,20 g/А·min
- consumption of electrodes per 1 kg of deposited metal: 1,4 – 1,6 kg
UONI 13/55 Plasma Е7018-1 electrodes are designed for critical structures welding made of carbon and low-alloy steels with an increased yield strength, operating under alternating loads at low temperatures of up to -50 ˚С. They are widely used in bridge construction, shipbuilding as well as pressure vessels production.
