- BlueShield™ Shielded-metal arc welding provide the best possible weld quality
- Premium low hydrogen electrode for high-strength steels with toughness down to -45°C
- Leader in the Canadian market, the BlueShield line meets high-quality standards
- Easy to use, low spatter, with excellent appearance
- For boiler and pressure vessel work, structural fabrication, pressure piping, maintenance
- The low volume hydrogen diffusion from the weld deposit considerably reduces the tendency to underbead (cold) cracking
- Ideal for boiler and pressure vessel work, structural fabrication, and more
- Allows welding of ""difficult-to-weld"" steels with less preheat requirements than is required for non-basic type electrodes
- Enables code quality welds (X-ray clear) with proper welding procedures
- Operates with DC current electrode positive or AC
- Allows for stringer bead or weaving technique
- Maintain the shortest arc possible for the best mechanical properties
- Minimize porosity by striking the electrode ahead of the crater of the previously finished weld bead and quickly move back into the crater while reducing the arc length
