Bohler Fox CEL 80-P (Cellulosic) Pipeline Steel Stick Electrodes
The Bohler Fox CEL 80-P are low alloy, cellulose coated stick electrodes engineered specifically for vertical down welding of high strength, large diameter transmission pipelines. These electrodes are a staple in pipeline construction due to its intensive arc, fast travel speeds, and extreme economic efficiency compared to conventional vertical-up welding methods.
Features
- Specifically optimised for vertical-down welding. It is highly recommended for hot passes, filler layers, and capping passes.
- Offers a forceful, deeply penetrating arc with a highly fluid weld pool, ensuring robust joint penetration and excellent process control in rough field conditions.
- Delivers a high-strength weld deposit with exceptional impact toughness and reliable gap-bridging properties.
- Formulated to meet strict operating demands, making it safe and compliant for pipeline networks running through demanding sour gas environments
