Description
  • N-8018-B2 is a basic coated low hydrogen welding electrode for welding of 1.25% Chromium and 0.5% Molybdenum alloy steels subjected to high pressure and temperatures, which are widely used in power plants and boiler piping
  • Specially formulated for the weld deposit to exhibit high tensile strength for strong weld joints and excellent charpy v-notch impact properties
  • Features quick striking technology to eliminate arc freeze and provides a seamless welding experience
  • Excellent welder appeal due to easy slag removal, easy maneuvering, quiet steady arc, and superb wetting properties
