Ferromate - K:

FERROMATE-K is a super heavy coated touch welding electrode with outstanding deposition rate for down hand butt and fillet welds and horizontal fillet welds. The electrode is very easy to manipulate and produces smooth welds with very low spatter loss. Very high welding current can be used to increase welding output and productivity. The electrode has a deposition efficiency of 150% approx. Gives radiography quality welds.

Notes on usage:

Employ welding currents within the range recommended.
Exposure at high relative humidity, such as during rainy seasons, is likely to cause excessive moisture pickup by the covering. This in turn may affect the usual satisfactory performance and may even result in some porosity. Hence, in such a case, redry electrodes at 100°C-120°C for 30-60 minutes, keeping in mind that the redrying schedule should not be too rigorous for this class of electrodes.
