PRIMA / TITAN / GARANT / CROMO / DUOWELD coated electrodes for non-alloy and low-alloy steels
Country: Germany · Model: PRIMA / TITAN / GARANT / CROMO / DUOWELD
Coated electrodes for manual metal arc welding (MMA) of non-alloy and low-alloy structural steels. The PRIMA, TITAN, GARANT, CROMO and DUOWELD lines cover rutile, rutile-cellulosic and basic electrodes and Cr-Mo electrodes for heat-resistant steels. They are used in mechanical engineering, boiler and steel structures, shipbuilding and pipeline construction.

Description
Rutile and rutile-cellulosic electrodes are represented by PRIMA, PRIMA BLUE, TITAN, TITAN ROT, TITAN S, TITAN K, OPTIMAL, KONTAKT 160 and TRUMPF. Basic ones are made under the names GARANT (S, K, X, BR, AC/DC), KOMPLEX W, IMPULS and MOB, and for Cr-Mo steels there are CROMO 1R, 1B and 2B. The double-coated DUOWELD is intended for assembly and repair welding in restricted positions. PRIMA conforms to EN ISO 2560-A E 38 0 RC 11 and AWS A5.1 E6013, welds on alternating and direct current of reverse polarity in diameters 2.0 / 2.5 / 3.25 / 4.0 / 5.0 mm in positions PA, PB, PC, PD, PF and PG. The slag detaches by itself, spatter is low, and the weld metal contains C 0.08 %, Si 0.3 %, Mn 0.6 %. GARANT conforms to EN ISO 2560-A E 42 2 B 42 H10 and AWS A5.1 E7018, current DC+, diameters 2.0–6.0 mm, positions PA–PF, with a low moisture absorption (LMA) coating.
How to choose
The electrode type is chosen by steel and position. Rutile PRIMA runs on alternating current and in all positions, while basic GARANT is needed for critical welds and steels with increased phosphorus, sulphur and carbon content. GARANT is suitable for S235–S355, fine-grained S275–S420, shipbuilding A32/36–F32/36, boiler P195–P355, pipe L210–L360, castings GE200, GE240, GP240, G21Mn5 and reinforcing steel BSt 420 and 500. The production history goes back to the patent for the coated electrode (1908) and the plant in Finsterwalde (1923).
