ER80S-D2 Low Alloy Welding Rod Blue Demon

ER80S-D2 is a mild steel solid wire used in
situations where porosity is a problem or
when you must counter high-sulfur or carbon
content in your base metal. It contains high
levels of manganese and silicon to provide
good wetting as well as good rust and scale
tolerance.

Typical Applications
• X-ray quality applications
• High-strength welds
• Steam boilers
• Pressure tanks
• Gas pipes
