Supercored 71
FLUX CORED WIRE
AWS A5.20 / ASME SFA5.20 E71T-1
JIS Z3313 YFW-C502R
l Applications
All position welding of machinery, shipbuilding, bridges. Impact values of weld metal are good.
l Characteristics on Usage
Supercored 71 is a flux cored wire which has been designed to get a good usability in all position for wide range of welding currents. With its quiet and smooth arc, its slag detachability is very good.
l Notes on Usage
a) Proper preheating(50~150°C)(122~302℉) and interpass temperature must be used in order to release hydrogen which may cause cracking in weld metal when electrodes are used for medium and heavy plates.
b) One-side welding defects such as hot cracking may occur with wrong welding parameter, such as high welding speed.
c) Use 100% CO2 gas.
d) Refer to page 168 for storage instructions.
