BÖHLER FOX DCMS Kb

AWS A5.5 / SFA-5.5 : E8018-B2 H4

BÖHLER FOX DCMS kb is a core wire alloyed covered electrode with basic coating for shielded metal arc welding. The 1% Cr / 0.5%
Mo type weld metal exhibits a bainitic microstructure with favorable mechanical properties in tempered and quenched and tempered
condition. Under certain conditions applications in the as welded condition is possible. The range of application covers joint welding of
similar alloyed creep resistant steel and steel casting. BÖHLER FOX DCMS kb is approved for application under creep condition at design
temperatures up to 570 ºC. Due to the low content of residual and tramp elements the weld metal offers a typical Bruscato factor < 12
ppm. Thus, being resistant to temper embrittlement and complies with the requirements on step-cooling testing. The optimized coating
guarantees low level of diffusible hydrogen in the weld metal and a metal recovery of 115
