Wet Welding Electrodes

Hydroweld FS wet welding electrodes are the result of significant research and development into flux formulations, filler metals and supplementary coatings. They are designed to work in all positions in fresh water or brine to a depth of at least 100 metres, their outstanding user friendly properties and wet welding characteristics, easily produce high quality wet welds to internationally recognised standards.

Hydroweld FS have rapidly become the industry standard where high quality wet welding is required. They can meet the requirements of AWS D3.6M-99 class ‘A’ fillet wet welds as has been witnessed by Lloyds Register of Shipping (LRS), American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Det Norske Veritas (DNV), Bureau Veritas (BV), Rina and Germanisher Lloyd (GL).
