ESAB OK 46.44 Stick Electrode

Non-alloyed and low-alloyed steels

 

• All welding positions
• Special vertical down welding capability
• Pore insensitive
• Good gap bridging
• Can also be used as a tacking electrode

 

A rutile-cellulose coated stick electrode that can be used in many areas, with excellent welding properties for repair and assembly work. The electrode is suitable for all welding positions. Hot arc. Very insensitive to pores, even with scale, primer, and zinc. Suitable for all welding positions, including vertical down. Also easy to master by inexperienced welders due to its ease of handling. The electrode can also be used as a tacking electrode. The electrode stands out due to original ESAB quality and a good
price-performance ratio.

Offers good gap bridging.

Easy ignition and re-ignition, offers pleasant welding characteristics.

General: Shipbuilding steels, light steel construction, light tank construction, thin sheets, pipe steels, quenched and tempered steels, boiler plates
