How to Choose Inside This Range
Start From the Base Metal
The parent material sets the filler chemistry. Match the composition first, then look at process and position.
Check the Property the Code Cares About
Usually impact energy at a stated temperature, or creep strength. That number decides the grade more often than the arc characteristics do.
Confirm the Process and Diameter
The same chemistry is supplied in different forms. Tell us the process and we will point at the right product form and diameter.
