CLASSIFICATIONS: E110T5-K3C per AWS A5.29, ASME SFA 5.29
Select 115-K3 is a low alloy steel, gas-shielded, flux cored electrode
for horizontal fillet and flat position welding of certain HSLA
steels. This electrode is capable of single and multiple pass
welding. The arc transfer is globular with a convex bead profile
due to the nature of a basic slag system.
APPLICATIONS: Select 115-K3 produces weld metal with a minimum
tensile strength of 110 Ksi, excellent low temperature CVN toughness
and low diffusible hydrogen levels. These characteristics make 115-K3
an ideal selection for welding high strength, low alloy steels such
as T-1, ASTM A514 and HY-100; and for welding abrasion resistant
steels in the 300, 350 and 400 series.
DIAMETERS: .045", 1/16", 5/64", 3/32"
SHIELDING GAS: 100% CO2, 35-50 cfh
WELDING POSITIONS: Flat and Horizontal
CHARACTERISTICS:
Basic slag provides low diffusible hydrogen and excellent CVN
toughness.
Meets the same requirements as E11018-M covered electrodes.
Well suited for welding HSLA steels in the 110-130 Ksi tensile
range.
