1,25%cr-0.25%mo alloyed MMA electrode for temper embrittlement resistance

DETAILS

MMA electrode – 1¼Cr-½Mo deposit which meets specific requirements for improved temper embrittlement resistance with prolonged service at 400-600°C.

Features

  • MMA electrode – 1¼Cr-½Mo deposit which meets specific requirements for improved temper embrittlement resistance with prolonged service at 400-600°C.
  • Excellent corrosion resistance in refineries to sulfur bearing crude oil at 250°C-450°C
  • Designed for welding 1.25% chromium, 0.50% Molybdenum steels
  • Trace elements are controlled to ensure low Bruscato (X-Factor < 15 ppm) and Wantanbe (J-Factor < 180 ppm) factors

Typical Applications

  • Petro-Chemical
  • Power Plants
  • Piping
  • Turbine Casting
  • Boiler Superheaters

Welding Positions

  • All, except vertical down
