RB-26 is a high titania oxide type welding electrode for mild steel. It is widely used for welding sheets of ships , rolling stocks and automobiles , for ornamental surfacing of thick plates.

General Characteristics

Workability

RB-26 possesses the following merits.

• As the arc is stable and penetration is shallow , it enables welding of 0.8 mm. sheets.
• Since spatter is rarely caused , beautiful beads can be obtained.
• Slag detachability is good.
• Downward welding in the vertical position becomes easy to carry out with this electrode and results in a beautiful bead appearance.
• Both AC and DC can be used.

Notes of Usages

• Though RB-26 is contained in a damp-proof package , it absorbs moisture if it is stored or left for a long time. It is always recommended to dry it again at 70 °C~100 °C for 30~60 minutes before use.
   
• Keep the arc length as short as possible.
• Adopt back step method or strike the arc on a small steel plate prepared for this particular purpose to prevent blowholes at the arc starting.
• Use the wind screen against strong wind.
