CORED WIRE

Innershield® NR-233

Self-Shielded Flux-Cored Wire

(AWS A5.20-95: E71T-8)

NR-233 is an advanced technology, self-shielded flux-cored electrode designed for high deposition rate welding - even when welding out-of-position in seismic and non-seismic structural steel applications. It is also great for fillet welding for ship and barge fabrication. The electrode is welder-friendly, making it easier to pass tough qualification tests and deposit great looking beads. It does all this while delivering Charpy V-Notch properties that meet many of the more stringent codes and specifications for seismic applications.

Advantage Lincoln

User Friendly

For the engineer: meets the stringent codes and standards for Charpy V-Notch properties, such as those listed in FEMA 353.

For the plant superintendent: higher deposition rates mean faster building erection, quicker launch of the barge, or more throughput in fabrication. In short: less cost and more profit.

For the welder: a more forgiving arc with greater penetration makes it easier to pass qualification tests, and makes for bet ter quality welds in production — and the welds look great.

NR-233 has been formulated to minimize gas marking, even after the electrode has been exposed to the atmosphere.
