A gas shielded, flux cored electrode intended for single and multiple pass welding of carbon and low alloy steels. 71T-1 exhibits excellent weld joint penetration and virtually eliminates lack of fusion problems. Weld-ability is excellent in all positions. Slag coverage is complete, and the slag removes easily and clean. Weld beads are radio-graphically sound. Typical applications include: general purpose flux cored welding of steel; structural steels; farm and mill machinery; construction and fab equipment; carbon steel fabrication
