Submerged Arc Welding Flux HJ431
HJ431
Specification: AWS A5.17 F6A2-EL12
Applications:
Butt and flat fillet welding of miniature LPG tanks, ships, vehicles, agricultural implements, machinery, boilers, bridges, structural steels.
Characteristics: HJ431 is a fused glassy granulated flux
Metallurgical behavior:
High silicon and manganese pick-up is obtained.
Grain size: 14 to 60 mesh
Basicity: 0.7(BIIW)
Damp flux should be re-dried at 300-350℃ for 2 hours. Rust, grease and moisture on the weldment should be removed before welding.
