Specifications:

  • AWS: A5.18: ER 70S-6

DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATION

  • TIG 70S6 is designed for welding of mild steel and 490N/mm2 grade steel.
  • Commonly used is butt or fillet welding of high pressure piping for shipbuilding, petro chemistry and nuclear power plant, etc.
  • As an all-position welding rod for TIG welding, it is especially suitable for the root pass of pipe welding.
  • Use DC(-) polarity.
  • 100% Argon shielding gas with 99.997% high purity is recommended and the flow rate must be properly controlled.
  • The flow rate is recommended 7-12l/min when arc current is 100-200Amp and it goes up to 12-15l/min when arc current rises to 200-300Amp.
  • Select right gas cup size and employ proper stick out of tungsten electrode.
  • To obtain a very clean weld pool, keep the weld plate free from dirt, rust, paint and any other atmospheric contamination.
  • Trailer Shield is required to ensure the weld pool completely shielded until solidification is complete and no porosity problem.
