Overlap welds on thin material;<br />
also butt and fillet welds<br />
The typical plate thickness for air compression tanks and gas<br />
bottles is 2.5mm The overlap joints are SA welded with 1.2<br />
to 2.5mm diameter wires.<br />
Wires of diameter 2.0mm or less are avalable in 450 kg<br />
Marathon Pacs which raises productivity drastically by<br />
reducing the downtime for spool changes. A good weld<br />
bead appearance is just as important as the excellent slag<br />
removal which is evident even on a second pass welded<br />
over a hot first pass. With OK Flux 10.87 these requirements<br />
are fulfilled even at high welding speeds up to 2m/min. Wide<br />
weld beads are produced with low transition angles to the<br />
base material. There are no requirements on toughness for<br />
weld metals produced with OK Flux 10.87.<br />
