per AWS A5.20, ASME SFA 5.20
APPROVAL: ABS 3SA-3YSA
Select 720HP is the latest addition to the Select-Arc line of premium,
flux cored, gas-shielded electrodes. This electrode is designed
for single and multiple pass welding of carbon steels in all positions.
APPLICATIONS: There are numerous applications for which Select
720HP is well suited, many of them previously reserved for EXX18
covered electrodes. This electrode excels in welding where requirements
are stringent, such as offshore platforms and pipe systems, pressure
vessels, oil and gas pipelines, petrochemical pipelines, structural
steel, bridge fabrication and many others.
DIAMETERS: .035", .045", .052", 1/16"
SHIELDING GAS: 100% CO2, 35-50 cfh
WELDING POSITIONS: All positions
CHARACTERISTICS:
Excellent bead geometry.
Extraordinary CVN toughness.
Low fume generation rates and diffusible hydrogen levels.
Exceptional resistance to moisture pickup.
Easily exceeds all recommended requirements.
