OK 46.00; OK 46.16; OK 48.00; OK 48.60; OK 50.40; OK 55.00 Electrodes ESAB
OK 46.00OK 46.00 is the best, all-round, rutile electrode and it is relatively insensitive to rust or other surface impurities. It deposits smooth weld beads in all positions, including vertical down, and the slag is easy to remove. OK 46.00 is very easy to strike and restrike, making it ideal for short welds, root runs and tacking. |

OK 48.00A reliable, general purpose, LMA electrode for mild and low-alloy steels. OK 48.00 deposits a tough, crack-resistant weld metal. High welding speed in the vertical-up position. OK 48.00 is insensitive to the composition of the base material within fairly wide limits. The electrode can be used for welding structures where difficult stress conditions cannot be avoided. |

OK 50.40OK 50.40 is an all-round electrode for the positional welding of mild steel, also well suited for pipe welding. It is particularly good for welding in the vertical-up position and for welding root runs. |
Typical all weld metal composition, %:
Yield stress: 450 MPa Approvals:

OK 55.00OK 55.00 is a reliable, high-quality, LMA electrode, particularly suitable for welding high strength low-alloy steels. The good, low-temperature impact strength of the weld metal should be noted. The weld metal is also very resistant to hot cracking. The electrode is also suitable for welding high strength ships steel, grades A, D and E. |
