Properties

CEWELD® FL 188 is an aluminate basic agglomerated welding flux. It is suitable for joint welding of low alloy structural steels, pipe steels, boiler steels and fine grain steels. The flux is suitable for single and multiple pass longitudinal, circumferential and fillet welds. It can be used in single, tandem, twin and multiple wire welding systems. Excellent slag removal in narrow groove welds of thick wall sections. Typical characteristics of this flux are medium Mn and Si pick-up and very low diffusible hydrogen content. It is suitable for both AC and DC welding.
Basicity according to Boniszewski: ~1.7
Flux density: 1.1 kg/dm3 (l)
Grain size acc. to ISO 14174: 2–16 (Tyler 10×65)
Current-carrying capacity: up to 1.500 A (DC or AC) using one wire
