Description
Overview:
These 4mm Low Hydrogen Welding Electrodes are flux-coated steel rods for MMA/arc welding on high tensile steels and low alloy mild steels. The low-hydrogen coating helps control hydrogen pick-up, supporting strong, crack-resistant welds on demanding jobs. Each electrode measures 4.0 mm diameter (approx. 5/32 in) and 350 mm length (approx. 13.8 in), giving good deposition rates and steady control. Suitable for use with both AC and DC welding sets, they perform reliably in all standard welding positions, including vertically down. Supplied in a 5 kg pack for workshop and site use, they suit fabrication, repair, and maintenance on structural sections, machinery, and general steelwork where toughness and consistency are important. Manufacturer Part Number (MPN): 885 400.
Key Features:
- 4.0 mm diameter (approx. 5/32 in) for strong welds with controlled penetration
- 350 mm length (approx. 13.8 in) for sustained runs and fewer electrode changes
- Low hydrogen flux coating to reduce risk of hydrogen cracking and porosity
- Designed for high tensile steels and low alloy mild steels in structural and repair work
- Works with AC and DC machines for flexible setup on site or in the workshop
- All-position capability, including vertical down, for versatile use on complex joints
- Smooth, stable arc with low spatter and easy slag removal for cleaner finishes
- Consistent mechanical performance for joints requiring strength and reliability
- 5 kg pack suited to regular use and efficient stockholding
- MPN: 885 400 for easy identification and reordering
Typical Applications:
Structural fabrication and site welding on beams, columns, brackets, and plate; repairs to construction plant, agricultural machinery, trailers, chassis, and buckets; maintenance on general steel fabrications where toughness and crack resistance matter; workshop jobs requiring dependable all-position performance on high tensile and low alloy mild steels.
Also known as:
Welding sticks, welding rods, stick electrodes, arc welding electrodes, MMA electrodes, SMAW electrodes, low-hydrogen rods for stick welding.
