Characteristics | CR-13 is a high titania type electrode, whose usability is excellent in all position welding. CR-13 is especially suitable for welding of light structural steels because arc stability, slag removal and bead appearance are good and its penetration is shallow. |
Notes on usage | (1) Pay attention not to exceed the range of proper currents. Welding with excessive current not only lowers X-ray soundness, but also causes increase of spatter, undercut and insufficient slag covering. (2) Dry the electrodes at 70~100℃ for 30~60 minutes before use. Excessive moisture absorption lowers usability and may result in some porosities. |
