gENERAL DESCRIPTION
Kobatek 350 is a basic coated electrode used for welding martensitic and martensitic-ferritic type steels.
It exhibits high corrosion resistance to water, vapor and salt water. A preheating of 100-200°C should be applied for thick sectioned parts. Interpass temperature should be constant.
Weld beads are smooth and the slag is easy to remove.
