Thick flux coating gives this electrode greater deposition efficiency and a slightly convex to flat weld bead with a finely rippled appearance. Quiet stable arc with low spatter and shallow penetration into the base metal. A very easy to use electrode. The slag is heavy but peels off easily. Commonly used on heavy construction and earth moving equipment, truck bodies, ships barges and railcars as well as many other mild steel and alloy steel applications.
