Description
Type 12 coated electrodes provide excellent hot hardness and abrasion resistance and good corrosion resistance. These properties make type 12 well suited for wood cutting saws and bars and for industrial cutting applications for carpet, plastics, paper and chemical industries. It bonds well to all steels, including stainless.
