Abstract
An improved consumable electric arc welding electrode having an outer ferrous metal sheath, such as a low carbon steel sheath, which is formed around a generally concentric core of compressed particulate fill material to be used for depositing an all weld metal of steel in multiple passes with a minimum tensile strength of about 72,000 psi and a minimum elongation of about 22 percent wherein the fill material includes aluminum in an amount greater than about 1.50 percent of the total electrode weight to provide a correlated amount of aluminum in the deposited metal. This improvement involves a particulate fill material producing a combination of nickel and manganese content in the range of 2.5-4.0 percent by weight of the total electrode with the nickel being greater than about 0.5 percent, the manganese being in the range of 0.7-2.0 percent and both the aluminum and the carbon in the fill material being properly controlled whereby the deposited all weld metal, when the sheath and core materials are melted and deposited, has a percentage by weight of aluminum greater than about 1.20 percent and a percentage of carbon by weight of less than about 0.12 percent.
