Elga P 48P welding electrodes 2.5 x 350mm 4.2kg

ELGA P 48P are low hydrogen sodium coated electrodes with a low carbon manganese design, specifically created for welding pipes. The electrodes excellently weld with AC (alternating) and DC (direct) currents in all positions. ELGA P 48P features an especially stable arc, thus easily allowing welding in various and hard to reach welding locations without the risk of arc blow. The root welding seam is smooth and slightly convex, thus beautifully blending with the base material. Welding characteristics are not sensitive to root gap or edge inaccuracies. With ELGA P 48P, the filling and covering are on the same level with the bead edges, thus reducing the risk of edge defects when welding in a straight or waved manner. Due to the flat or slightly convex welding seam, there is no need for extensive seam grinding, hence significantly reducing dust and noise in the working environment.
