Generally, we see the name of the electrode package on the package as:
TH J 42 6
┬ ┬ ┬ ┬
│ │ │ └ The third digit “2” indicates that the coating type is titanium calcium, DC or AC power.
│ │ └─ indicates that the two digits indicate that the minimum tensile strength of the deposited metal is 42kgf/mm2 (412MP a), and the lowest value of the yield strength of the deposited metal is 43kgf/mm2 (430MPa).
│ └── indicates a structural steel electrode.
└────── indicates the manufacturer's grade of Tianjin Bridge Welding Materials Group Co., Ltd.
According to the national standard GB/T5117-95, it should meet the requirements of E4303 type electrode.
The method for preparing the national standard electrode is as follows:
E 43 0 3
┬ ┬ ┬ ┬
│ │ │ └ Indicates that the electrode coating is of low hydrogen type and is connected by DC reverse welding.
│ │ └─ Indicates that the electrode is suitable for all-position welding.
│ └── Indicates the minimum tensile strength of the deposited metal.
└──── Indicates the electrode.
The electrode type is generally indicated on the welding rod end, and the label is the grade of the electrode.
