Ultimate-16:

Ease of operation in all positions. Smooth and stable arc which is easy to strike & restrike, combined with low spatter and with due control on molten pool. Slag detachability with little effort.Finely rippled bead with regular profile. Weld metal which possesses excellent mechanical properties and displays resistance to cracking caused by heavy stresses and/or hydrogen. High basicity of slag which helps withstand adverse effect of impurities in base material. Hence its ability to tackle many problems in repair of grey cast iron and to act as buffer layer on hard or work-hardened steel components.

Identification:Name Printed

Applications:ULTIMATE-16 is a versatile basic-coated electrode designed for joining as well as for repairs. The wide range of materials include carbon steel, medium high tensile steels, low alloy steels, cast steels & cast iron. This is rendered possible by the highly ductile & tough weld metal, combined with ease of handling on DC as well as AC. Some applications are :Pumps & Compressors,Off-shore drilling rigs & Platforms,Bollers,Pressure Vessels, Submarines, Rotary kiln shells, Frigates, Blast Furnace Shells, Bridges and machinery for earth moving and road building.
