Typical applications
Butt and fillet welding of steel structures such as construction machines, industrial machinery, and buildings, etc.
Characteristics on usage
- Very good Charpy V notch toughness at low temperatures
- Good penetration and excellent welding characteristics
- Excellent product for fillet welding
- High tolerance to rust, primer and mill scale (compared to E70C-3M)
