R60
Alloy Type: A5.2, CARBON AND LOW ALLOY Bare Gas Welding Rods
R60 is a moly alloyed, high strength, oxy-acetylene gas welding rod used for gas welding of low carbon and low alloy steels. It is used in applications where a high tensile strength is needed. The high silicon and manganese content in the product eliminates the need for flux when welding. A neutral flame should be used.
Typical Applications: low carbon and low alloy steels, sheets, plates and pies, structural shapes
