• Applications
  • WT-81K2 is designed for welding of 590MPa high tensile steel for low temperature service. Typical applications include offshore structures, LNG and LPG carriers and storage tank.
  • Characteristics on Usage
    • - It is a titania type of flux cored wire for all-position welding.
    • - The weld metal contain about 1.5%Ni, so good impact value at low temperatures down to -60℃.
    • - It features good porosity resistance and easy slag removal.
  • Notes on Usage
    • - Proper preheating(50~150℃) and interpass temperature must be used in order to release diffusible hydrogen which may cause cracking in weld metal when electrodes are used for medium and heavy plates.
    • - Shielding gas should be used 100% CO2.
