P 45S is a multi-purpose rutile-cellulosic coated electrode suitable for a wide application range in mild steel
The electrode is fully positional, including vertical down and welds with a crisp, steady arc to produce a smooth bead surface with good slag detachability.
It is relatively insensitive to rust, dirt and surface coatings.
Together with its ability to bridge gaps, the general versatility of P 45S makes it ideal for both shop and site fabrication.
