HILCO VELVETA

Velveta is our rutile coated electrode for all welding positions, especially for vertical up position. This electrode is characterised by an extremely easy handling, smooth arc transfer, easy slag removal and a finely rippled bead surface. Velveta is the logic first choice for thin-walled pipe welding. Typical applications include assembly, workshop and repair welding of mild and low-alloyed structural steels. Velveta is an all-current type (AC/DC), which also operates on transformers with low OCV, min. 42V.
