Böhler FOX Yellow Stick Electrodes

Böhler Phoenix SH Yellow / Böhler FOX Yellow Stick Electrodes

Böhler Phoenix SH Yellow stick electrodes for unalloyed and low-alloy steels

• Good gap bridging ability
• Low spatter formation
• Good for welding in constrained positions
• Excellent ignitability
• Slag largely self-detaching

Rutile-basic coated Böhler Phoenix SH Yellow stick electrodes, suitable for a wide range of applications in repair, assembly, and workshop welding. Assembly work can be carried out in all positions with a constant current. Predestined for welding in constrained positions. Weldable with DC and AC current. Fine-scaled smooth seams with notch-free transition to the base material. Also suitable for beginners due to easy handling. 

Easy ignition and re-ignition. Böhler Phoenix SH Yellow stick electrodes show excellent climbing properties. Particularly suitable for X-ray-sound welding of pipe circumferential seams. Good and pore-free penetration is also guaranteed with narrow air gaps.

The stick electrodes can also be used with small transformers and are weldable at 42V protective voltage.

Suitable for pipeline construction, boiler construction, tank construction, steel construction, and shipbuilding.

General: Steels up to a yield strength of 380 MPa, shipbuilding steels, pressure vessel steels
