ESAB 36H Low Hydrogen Welding Electrode Size

ESAB 36H Low Hydrogen Welding Electrode is a high-quality welding consumable designed for welding applications that require low hydrogen content in the deposited weld metal. These electrodes are meticulously engineered by ESAB, a globally recognized leader in welding and cutting solutions, to provide superior performance and consistent results in critical welding operations.

The "36H" designation indicates the classification of the electrode according to American Welding Society (AWS) standards. In this classification system, "36" represents the tensile strength of the deposited weld metal in kilopounds per square inch (ksi), while "H" denotes that the electrode has a low hydrogen content.

ESAB 36H Low Hydrogen Welding Electrodes are available in various sizes, typically ranging from 2.5 mm to 5.0 mm in diameter. The choice of electrode size depends on factors such as the welding process, base metal thickness, welding position, and specific welding requirements.

These electrodes are specifically formulated with a low hydrogen coating to minimize the risk of hydrogen-induced cracking in the weld metal, particularly in applications where the welded joints are subjected to high levels of stress or where the base metal is susceptible to hydrogen embrittlement.

ESAB 36H Low Hydrogen Welding Electrodes are widely used in critical welding applications across various industries, including structural fabrication, pressure vessel manufacturing, shipbuilding, and pipeline construction. They are suitable for welding carbon and low-alloy steels, providing excellent weld quality, mechanical properties, and resistance to cracking.
