Low Alloy High Strength Steel

DETAILS

SuperArc® LA-100™ is a solid wire that produces a low alloy high strength steel weld deposit. This wire is suitable for joining AS/NZS 3597 Grade 600 and similar steel grades.

Features

  • Capable of producing welds with 690 MPa (100 ksi) tensile strength
  • Excellent for welding quenched and tempered steels
  • Supports short-circuiting, globular, axial spray and pulsed spray transfer
  • Copper coating provides superior arc-starting characteristics for long contact tip life

Typical Applications

  • HY-80 base material
  • ASTM A514, A543, A724 and A782 quenched and tempered plate
  • Various heat input conditions
  • Military low alloy applications

Welding Positions

  • All

Shielding Gas

NOTES

Note
* To meet the requirements of a "G" classification, the chemical composition of the eletrode must meet the minimum requirement for one or more of
⁽¹⁾ CTWD (Contact Tip to Work Distance). Subtract 1/4 in (6.4 mm) to calculate Electrical Stickout.
⁽²⁾ Procedures in this area are for pulse MIG mode for welding in the vertical up and overhead welding positions. Actual results are dependent on joint, material thickness, as well as wave shape and pulse frequency.
