FAQ

Q: What steels is BLUME® E9016-G best suited for?
A: It’s ideal for high-strength, low-alloy (HSLA) and quenched and tempered steels used in heavy fabrication and structural applications.

Q: Can this electrode be used in all welding positions?
A: Yes — BLUME® E9016-G provides excellent control for all-position welding, especially vertical and overhead.

Q: How does it differ from BLUME® E9015-G?
A: BLUME® E9016-G offers a smoother arc and improved slag control, making it easier to use in all-position work while maintaining the same high strength.

Q: Is rebaking required before use?
A: If exposed to moisture, rebake at 650°F (340°C) for one hour to restore low-hydrogen integrity.

Q: Why choose BLUME® over generic brands?
A: BLUME® electrodes are engineered for consistency, mechanical strength, and productivity, giving you cleaner welds, fewer defects, and higher efficiency — every time.
