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.

Usage:      
For welding steel structures and thin steel sheets galvanized steel in the construction of ships, trains and motor vehicles made of mild steel    

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.  

Features in use:      
RB-26 welding wire is a titania type high flux cored wire. which can be connected in a vertical position - drag down Even when using a welding rod with a diameter of up to 5.0 mm, RB-26 electrode provides a stable arc with less spatter. Makes the surface of the welding seam smooth and shiny. Ideal for light structural welding. Which emphasizes welding in a vertical position - drag down It is also suitable for welding steel sheets and thin structures. due to the penetration depth that is not very high    

Things to remember when using:    
- To connect vertical position - drag down The tip of the welding rod should touch the workpiece plate.    
- Do not use a welding current higher than the recommended range. Because not only will the X-ray inspection ability be reduced It also caused a lot of welding sparks. edge bite marks And the cover of the slag is not good enough.    
- for best effect The welding wire should be dried before use at a temperature of 70-100ºC for 30-60 minutes. The excessive moisture absorption of the welding wire will reduce the working properties of the welding wire. And may cause air bubbles in the weld.    

Warning:       
- Appropriate eye and body protection should be worn.    
- Do not touch electrically conductive devices.    
- Do not inhale welding fumes.
