Weld metal contains2.5%Ni and good impact properties at -60°C.
It is ideal for welding in LNG storage tanks or 2.5% Ni steel for low temperature resistance.

▎Welding Position

▎Welding Instruction

Clean up the contaminations on the steel.
Dry the electrodes at 350~400°C for 60 minutes before welding.
Keep arc as short as possible. Take the back step method to prevent porosity at arc start and re-start. (Please refer to Appendix A)
High heat input will lower the impact value. Please carefully select the welding current.
The preheat temperature for thick plate is 90~110°C.

▎Application

It is ideal for welding in LNG storage tanks or 2.5% Ni steel for low temperature resistance.
