GENERAL
A copper coated solid wire especially designed for downhill circumferential GMAW on pipes in materials such
as APi 5L (grade 52 up to grade 70). The main applications are pipelines, compressor stations and associated
works in the oil and gas distribution industries with special requirements. To meet these requirements
the electrode is a "clean" type of EN ISO 14341-A G4Si1 as regards chemical analysis.

Shielding Gas: M20, M21(and other mixture of Alloy Type: Carbon-manganese steel (Mn/Si-alloyed)
Ar and CO2), C1 (EN ISO 14175)
