Welding guidelines
Preheat not generally required. Interpass temperature
150C max. Heat input in the range 1.02.0 kJ/mm
(depending on material thickness) should be acceptable
but most codes restrict the max to 1.5 or 1.75kJ/mm.

3 hermetically sealed ring-pull metal tins per carton, with unlimited shelf life. Direct use from tin is satisfactory
for longer than a working shift of 8h. Excessive exposure of electrodes to humid conditions will cause some
moisture pick-up and increase the risk of porosity.
For electrodes that have been exposed:
Redry 200 300C/1-2h to restore to as-packed condition. Maximum 400 C, 3 cycles, 10h total.
Storage of redried electrodes at 50 200C in holding oven or heated quiver: no limit, but maximum 6 weeks
recommended. Recommended ambient storage conditions for opened tins (using plastic lid): < 60% RH, > 18C.

ZERON 100XKS
Product description
Basic coated all-positional MMA electrode for welding Zeron 100 and other superduplex alloys for service in the
as-welded condition. This electrode is overmatching with respect to nickel content to achieve correct austeniteferrite microstructural phase balance. It is designed for the most demanding vertical and overhead welding
positions such as fixed pipework qualified in the ASME 6G position.
Fully alloyed matching Zeron 100 core wire including W and Cu. Moisture resistant flux technology.
Recovery is about 105% with respect to core wire, 65% with respect to whole electrode.
