| Characteristics | CS-200 is ilmenite type covered electrode which is designed for better weldability in particular. As its crack resistibility and X-ray soundness are excellent, structural steels with heavy sections up to about 25mm can be welded with CS-200. The penetration is deeper compared with high titania and lime titania type electrodes. |
| Notes on usage | (1) Pay attention not to exceed the range of proper currents. Welding with excessive current not only lowers X-ray soundness, but also causes increase of spatter, undercut and insufficient slag covering. (2) Dry the electrodes at 70~100℃ for 30~60 minutes before use. Excessive moisture absorption lowers usability and may result in some porosities. (3) Excessive drying before use causes less penetration and overheating of the electrode. |
