Description

Basic flux cored wire for flat and horizontal position
Basic flux cored wire for welding low-alloy steels with 3,5% Ni and fine grain steel as well as for -100°C low temperature applications. Suitable for the construction of offshore platforms, pressure vessels and pipelines and also for welding higher strength steel structures where PWHT is impracticable but toughness and crack resistance are required. The wire shows excellent weldability in flat and horizontal position, smooth and bright bead, very low spatter losses, easy to remove slag and exceptional mechanical properties even at low temperatures.

Description

Application

For welding higher-strength steel structures in situations where post-weld heat treatment (PWHT) is impractical, requiring welds with a suitable level of toughness and crack resistance. The addition of approximately 1% Ni contributes to microstructural refinement, enhancing tolerance to procedural variations compared to plain carbon-manganese (CMn) weld metal. Nickel also improves resistance to atmospheric weathering and enhances electrochemical balance between the weld and base metal, minimizing preferential corrosion in marine environments. In cases of offshore oilfield sour service, a maximum of 1.0% Ni is often required (NACE MR0175). This consumable is recommended for applications where design specifications mandate toughness testing of higher-strength low-alloy steel welds down to –50°C, such as in offshore construction, pipelines, and pressure vessels. Preheat requirements will depend on the grade and thickness of the base material.

Alloy Type

Low alloy steel alloyed with nominally 1%Ni for improved toughness. Actual Ni content is kept below 1% to ensure conformance with NACE MR0175.

Microstructure

In the as-welded condition the microstructure is ferritic with a component of acicular ferrite for optimum toughness.

Materials

Low temperature applications, fine-grained steels that contain 1 % Nickel.
