PHiLARC - The No. 1 Choice of Welders

PA-1300 WHITE/RED

AWS Specification: AWS A5.1 E6013

JIS Specification: Z3211 D4313

Other Specification: DIN 1913 E4332

 

I. APPLICATIONS:

  • Steel structure-trusses, portal frames, tubed framework

  • Sheet and plate metal structures and containers-plating, storage tanks, hoppers, silos, bins

  • Field jointing of pipes for water, gas and fluid transmission

  • Site joining of H/sheet/pipe piles

  • Light steel frames – grills, ornamental and gate works, furniture

  • General workshop welding and maintenance

  • Compatible and suitable for welding steels to:

           ASTM (eg. A36)

           BS EN 10025 (eg. S275, S275 JR)                    BS 4360 (eg. Grade 40, 43)

           API Std. 5L (eg. Grade A, B, A25, X42, X46)     JIS G3106 (eg. SS41, SM41)

II. DESCRIPTIONS:

PA-1300 is the most versatile general purpose rutile coated welding electrode for welding in all positions including vertical down. It has following special features:

  • Very easy initial arc strike (ignition) and “cold” re-striking (re-ignition) properties, for easy tack welding or point welding.

  • Ultra smooth, quite and stable arc.

  • Very few smoke or fume during welding.

  • Self-removing of slag – reduces cleaning & slag removing time after welding.

  • Beautiful and finely rippled bead for nice finishing and appearance.

  • Outstanding all position welding performance including vertical down.

  • Can use “touch type” or “contact” welding-giving ease and comfort to welders.

III. NOTES ON USAGE:

  1. Pay attention not to exceed the range of proper currents. Welding with excessive current not only lowers X-ray soundness, but also causes increase of spatter, under-cut and insufficient slag covering.

  • Dry the electrodes at 70-100 degrees C for 30-60 minutes before use. Excessive moisture absorption lowers usability and may result in some porosities.

  • Excessive drying before use causes less in penetration and overheating of the electrode.
