AWS/ASME A 5.13 E CoCr-C
EN 14700 E Co3
DIN 8555: E20-UM-55-CTZ
FEATURES & APPLICATIONS |
Hardest cobalt based electrode with very low coefficient of friction.
- Extremely smooth running Alloy 1 Cobalt electrode.
- Extra hardness for maximum edge retention.
- Slag is self releasing.
- Weld deposits are unusually fine rippled and uniform.
- Available bare as product code 1291.
- Special technology also performs on AC current.
