CLASSIFICATIONS: E80T1-A1C per AWS A5.29, ASME SFA 5.29
Select 81-A1 is a low alloy steel electrode intended for single
and multiple pass welding of certain carbon-molybdenum steels where
the addition of 1/2 percent of molybdenum is required in the deposited
weld metal.
APPLICATIONS: Select 81-A1 is well-suited for welding certain
C-MO steels used in the fabrication of boilers and pressure vessels
such as ASTM A161, A204 and A302 Gr. A plate.
DIAMETERS: 1/16", 3/32"
SHIELDING GAS: 100% CO2, 35-50 cfh
WELDING POSITIONS: Flat and Horizontal
CHARACTERISTICS:
Spray-like arc transfer with very low spatter.
Exhibits minimum of convexity.
Complete slag coverage with easy detachment.
