P 48S Covered (Stick) Electrodes (SMAW) Unalloyed
P 48S is a basic-coated, low hydrogen, general purpose electrode for use on
DC+ only, for which the outstanding all-round operability has been optimised.
The smooth, soft arc, easy slag control, all-positional welding, low spatter and
excellent slag release provide maximum welder-appeal.
P 48S combines the good running characteristics required for general
fabrication work with the exacting operability needs for pipe welding, where the fine spray transfer provides precise weld pool control and ensures an
exceptionally regular and smooth root bead.
