>Low Temperature Steel
LPA-118
LPA-118 is an iron powder low hydrogen type electrode for all-position welding. Notchtoughness at low temperature(-40℃) is excellent, because it contains more Ni comparedwith other electrodes.

| Applications | Welding of 1%Ni steel used low temperature services of 55kgf/mm2 class high tensile strength steel such as ASTM A588 and A242 steels. |
|---|---|
| Characteristics | LPA-118 is an iron powder low hydrogen type electrode for all-position welding. Notch toughness at low temperature(-40℃) is excellent, because it contains more Ni compared with other electrodes. |
| Notes on usage | (1) Dry the electrodes at 350~400℃ for about one hour before use. (2) Keep the arc as short as possible. (3) Adopt backstep method or strike the arc on a small steel plate prepared for this particular purpose to prevent blowholes at the arc starting. (4) Preheat at 50~100℃ depending on the kind of steel and its thickness. |
