Characteristics | LC-318 is iron powder low hydrogen type electrode for all-position welding. Its usability is the best with direct current application as well as alternating current application. |
Notes on usage | (1) Dry the electrodes at 300~350℃ for 30~60 minutes before use. (2) Adopt back step method or strike the arc on a small steel plate prepared for this particular purpose to prevent blowholes at the arc starting. (3) Keep the arc as short as possible. |
