About F 80S-D2 Low Alloy Steels Electrode

F 80S-D2 Low Alloy Steels Electrode is used for high strength joining and fabrication of low alloy and mild steels. It can also be utilized as an underlay prior to the deposition of a hard facing alloy. Weld deposits are produced of approximately 95,000 psi tensile strength and has 25% elongation.

Engineered for Strength and Durability

F 80S-D2 electrodes are manufactured using a low alloy steel formulation, enhanced by copper coating for optimal arc stability and minimal spatter. Their robust mechanical propertiesincluding high tensile strength and impact resistance at sub-zero temperaturesmake them ideal for projects where structural integrity is paramount.

Wide Application Versatility

These electrodes are tailored for welding high tensile strength steels found in demanding industries such as construction, shipbuilding, pressure vessel manufacturing, and offshore engineering. They perform reliably on various structures such as storage tanks, penstocks, and bridges, even under challenging environmental conditions.

Reliable Storage and Handling

To maintain performance, store unused electrodes in a dry location. If moisture absorption is suspected, re-bake them at 350C for two hours. Their shelf life extends up to 12 months from manufacturing, ensuring readiness for both immediate and future use.

FAQs of F 80S-D2 Low Alloy Steels Electrode:

Q: How should F 80S-D2 electrodes be stored and handled to prevent moisture pick-up?

A: Store F 80S-D2 electrodes in a dry environment as recommended. If there is any suspicion of moisture absorption, re-bake the electrodes at 350C for 2 hours before use to restore optimum welding properties and prevent weld defects caused by moisture.

Q: What types of structures and environments are F 80S-D2 electrodes suitable for?

A: F 80S-D2 electrodes are ideal for high strength and low alloy steel applications, including welding of pressure vessels, bridges, offshore structures, storage tanks, and penstocks. They perform efficiently even in challenging environments requiring excellent impact toughness at low temperatures.

Q: When should I consider using the F 80S-D2 electrode for welding?

A: Select F 80S-D2 electrodes when your application requires superior tensile strength (min. 570 MPa), good elongation, and high impact resistance, particularly in critical infrastructure or components exposed to dynamic or low-temperature conditions.

Q: Where can I use F 80S-D2 electrodes in terms of compatible processes and voltages?

A: These electrodes are compatible with both AC and DC (+) welding currents. Typical operating voltage ranges from 20 to 32 V, depending on the wire diameter and process, making them suitable for a range of welding equipment and shop setups.

Q: What are the key benefits of using F 80S-D2 electrodes in fabrication?

A: F 80S-D2 electrodes provide high mechanical strength, outstanding weld quality, and consistent performance. They contribute to achieving durable, defect-resistant welds in structural and pressure-containing components, enhancing overall safety and longevity of the welded part.

Q: How do I select the correct diameter and pack size for my project?

A: Choose the electrode diameter (available in 2.5, 3.2, 4.0, and 5.0 mm) based on joint design, material thickness, and welding position. Among 5 kg, 10 kg, and 20 kg pack sizes, select the most economical option that meets your project consumption and storage capabilities.
