BLUME® ER80S-Ni1 (TIG) Datasheet

Q: What makes BLUME® ER80S-Ni1 ideal for low-temperature applications?
A: The nickel-enriched formula provides excellent notch toughness and ductility, ensuring welds remain strong and crack-resistant even in sub-zero environments.

Q: Can BLUME® ER80S-Ni1 be used on all carbon steels?
A: It’s best suited for fine-grained and low-alloy steels where low-temperature impact resistance and high strength are required.

Q: What shielding gas is recommended for TIG welding?
A: Use 100% Argon for optimal arc stability and weld cleanliness.

Q: Is it suitable for both root and cap passes?
A: Yes. BLUME® ER80S-Ni1 offers excellent puddle control and uniform bead shape, making it ideal for both root and final passes.
