Type/ Characteristics: Agglomerated fluoride-basic type flux for welding high tensile fine grain structural steels and creep resistant steels. In nuclear engineering, AMA OP 41 TT combined with different wire electrodes, may be used for a great many applications. It is preferably used for joining components such as reactor pressure vessels, steam generators, pressurizes, reactor safety shells and piping of the primary and secondary circuits, as well as for auxiliary plants.

In combination with 50-57 wire electrodes, AMA OP 41 TT was successfully COD-tested and is therefore commonly used in the offshore sector. As to silicon, its behavior is neutral, i.e. neither pick-up nor burn-out will occur. However, manganese will burn out, so that wire electrodes having higher manganese and silicon contents (e.g. 50-57) should be used. The flux does not contain metallic components and can therefore be designated as a pure slag-forming agent.

On account of its special production mode, moisture pick-up of the flux and hydrogen content of the weld metal are low. AMA OP 41 TT can be used on either DC (positive) or AC up to approximately 800 A. Damp flux shall be redried by baking at 300-350 ˚C. Grain size according to DIN 32 522:2-20.
