FAQ
FAQ
Q: What is BLUME® E12015-G used for?
A: It’s designed for high-strength low-alloy steels where 120 ksi tensile strength and high crack resistance are critical — such as in pressure vessels, bridges, offshore rigs, and heavy equipment.
Q: Can it be used in all positions?
A: Yes, BLUME® E12015-G performs well in flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead positions with a smooth arc and excellent puddle control.
Q: What sets BLUME® apart from standard electrodes?
A: BLUME® electrodes feature ultra-low hydrogen coatings, high-purity alloying, and strict quality consistency, ensuring stronger welds, better performance, and fewer defects.
Q: What are the storage and handling recommendations?
A: Store in a dry, heated oven at 250°F (120°C). If moisture exposure occurs, rebake at 650°F (340°C) for 1 hour before use.
Q: Is BLUME® E12015-G suitable for code-quality or certified welds?
A: Yes, it fully meets AWS and ASME standards, making it ideal for critical structural and pressure applications where certification is mandatory.
