DIN EN 760                       SA MS 1 89AC

DIN 32 522        B MS 1 88 AC SK MHP5

 

Type /Characteristics: Agglomerated Manganese-Silicate type flux for high-speed welding of butt and fillet welds. The high silicon and manganese transfer from the flux to weld metal alloys to use the AMA OP 176 flux with low or medium manganese wire electrode like 11-50 , 12-50, 14-50.

Owing to its good weldability AMA OP 176 can be used in welding from both sides in one pass, e.g. in longitudinal welding of large diameter pipes and in thin walled spiral pipes. AMA OP 176 can be used on either DC (positive) or AC current.  

Damp flux shall be redried by baking at 300-350C

Grain size in according with DIN 32 522:3-20.
