Electrode Böhler FOX A 7 5,0 x 450 6,4 kg Tin can

Basic-coated, core wire alloyed austenitic electrode of type E 18 8 Mn B / E307-15 for welding and cladding in all positions except vertical down. Versatile electrode for numerous applications - welding of difficult-to-weld steel grades, welding of different types as well as repair and maintenance. For hard buffer and intermediate layers for cladding of rails and switches, valve seats and in hydropower plants. The weld metal offers exceptionally high ductility and elongation together with outstanding crack resistance. Good resistance to embrittlement at service at service temperatures from -100°C up to 650°C. The weld metal work-hardens and offers good resistance to kavitation. The weld metal is resistant to scaling up to 850°C, but at temperatures over 500°C is that not sufficient resistance to sulfur-containing combustion gases. The weld metal offers high ductility, elongation and resistance to varm cracking, also after high fortynding of difficult-to-weld steel grades.
