2 About The Lincoln Electric Company Lincoln s Lincoln Electric is the world s leading manufacturer of welding equipment and consumables. Our focus is on helping companies make their welding operations more effective, more efficient, more profitable. We are dedicated to two equally important goals: exceptional quality and exceptional service. Our field support team with hundreds of field sales engineers and thousands of knowledgeable and responsive Lincoln distributors in countries all over the world is the largest in the industry. Innovative thinking. A quality, service-first attitude. Fresh approaches to design, manufacturing, and packaging. Worldwide strength. Choose Lincoln. Industries such as offshore, bridge construction, shipbuilding, and structural fabrication have long relied on gas-shielded flux cored wire processes. Their steel fabrication needs often require a process that allows for robust mechanical properties, excellent repetitive welds, and high deposition rates when out-of-position welding is a necessity. As the use of this process has grown, so have the resources that Lincoln Electric dedicates to making the process more effective, productive, and economical to its customers. The Outershield wire family of products is a demonstration of that commitment to innovation. Establishing a name for itself in the welding industry, Outershield wire offers proven consistency, demonstrated performance, and a solution for any job s requirements. Outershield wires also provide for a superb arc, high deposition rates, and exceptional puddle control in out-of-position welding. Add to all of this Lincoln Electric s commitment to customer service, support, and quality assurance, and it s clear that Outershield wire is the professional welders choice in gas-shielded flux cored wire. Choose Wisely Quality welds start with quality welding consumables. No other manufacturer works harder to ensure consumables quality like Lincoln Electric, where all our wire consumables are ISO 9001 and ISO certified - manufactured to standards for quality and environmental management systems. First, proprietary techniques are used to inspect incoming steel to ensure the chemistry of each incoming roll of steel. Our tolerances are more tightly held than agency requirements, guaranteeing a finished product that gets the job done. 2

3 Choose Wisely (cont.) Once the steel s characteristics are established, it is matched to the most appropriate product, ensuring the best raw materials go into every drum, spool, and box of finished product. Fluxes are monitored and inspected at several stages during the manufacturing process as well, affirming a consistent blend of chemical elements, and controlled particle sizing for optimum performance. Lastly, the diameter and chemistry of every coil of Outershield wire is checked at 19 different stages of the production process, a level of quality assurance that is unmatched in our industry. Lincoln Electric also rises above the competition by offering strip or rod manufacturing processes, depending on the desired attribute of the wire. In this way we can ensure a finished product that is the best performing wire for any given application.

23 STORING OUTERSHIELD WIRES In general, Outershield electrodes will produce weld deposits which achieve hydrogen levels below 16 ml per 100 grams deposited metal. These products, like other products which produce deposits low in hydrogen, must be protected from exposure to the atmosphere in order to maintain hydrogen levels as low as possible, preventing rusting of the product and preventing porosity during welding. Accordingly, the following storage conditions are recommended for Outershield electrodes in their original, unopened boxes and plastic bags. The recommended storage conditions are such that they maintain condition of 90 grains of moisture per pound of dry air. Examples of storage conditions that will meet this requirement are given below: Ambient Maximum Temperature Relative F C Humidity % % % % For best results, electrode should be consumed as soon as practicable. However, it may be stored up to three years from the date of manufacture. Consult your Lincoln distributor or sales representative if there is a question as to when the electrode was made. Once the electrode packaging is opened, Outershield electrodes can be subject to contamination from atmospheric moisture. Care has been taken in the design of these products to select core ingredients that are essentially resistant to moisture pick-up; however, condensation of the moisture from the atmosphere onto the surface of the electrode can be sufficient enough to degrade the product. The following minimum precautions should be taken to safeguard product after opening the original package. Electrode should be used within approximately 1 week after opening the original package. Opened electrode should not be exposed to damp, moist conditions or extremes in temperature and/or humidity where surface condensation can occur. Electrodes mounted on wire feeders should be protected against condensation. It is recommended that electrode removed from its original packaging be placed in poly bags (4 mil minimum thickness) when not in use. Outershield electrodes will evidence high moisture levels in the form of gas tracks, higher spatter and porosity. Any rusty electrode should be discarded. Outershield Products Used for Applications Requiring More Restrictive Hydrogen Control The AWS specifications for flux cored electrodes, ANSI/AWS A , states that Flux cored arc welding is generally considered to be a low hydrogen welding process. To further clarify the issue, this specification makes available optional supplemental designators for maximum diffusible hydrogen levels of 4, 8 and 16 ml per 100 grams of deposited weld metal. Some Outershield products have been designed and manufactured to produce weld deposits meeting more stringent diffusible hydrogen requirements. These electrodes are usually distinguished by an H added to the product name. These electrodes will remain relatively dry under recommended storage conditions in their original, unopened package or container. For critical applications in which the weld metal hydrogen must be controlled (usually H8 or lower), or where shipping and storage conditions are not controlled or known, only hermetically sealed packaging is recommended. Outershield electrodes are available in hermetically sealed packages on a Special Order basis. Once the package has been opened, the electrode should not be exposed to conditions exceeding 80% relative humidity for a period greater than 16 hours, or any less humid condition for greater than 24 hours. Conditions that exceed 80% relative humidity will decrease the maximum 16 hour exposure period. After exposure, hydrogen levels can be reduced by conditioning the electrode. Electrode may be conditioned at a temperature of 230ºF ± 25ºF for a period of 6 to 12 hours, cooled and then stored in sealed poly bags (4 mil minimum thickness) or equivalent. Electrode on plastic spools should not be heated at temperatures in excess of 150ºF. Electrode that is rusty should be discarded. Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and Certificates of Conformance are available on our website at T E S T R E S U L T S Test results for mechanical properties, deposit or electrode composition and diffusible hydrogen levels were obtained from a weld produced and tested according to prescribed standards, and should not be assumed to be the expected results in a particular application or weldment. Actual results will vary depending on many factors, including, but not limited to, weld procedure, plate chemistry and temperature, weldment design and fabrication methods. Users are cautioned to confirm by qualification testing, or other appropriate means, the suitability of any welding consumable and procedure before use in the intended application.
