Select EM14KS is designed to produce a weld deposit chemistry equivalent to that produced by solid wire,
EM14K electrodes. The cored wire design results in higher deposition rates than solid wire when run at the same
current level.
Select EM14KS allows for better control of bead penetration than solid wire. The penetration pattern for a
cored electrode is broader and slightly shallower, reducing the tendency for burn through on root passes or poorly fit up
joints.
Applications:
Select EM14KS is ideal for those applications involving the welding of pressure vessels and structural carbon
steels such as A36, A285, A515, and A516. It should be used with neutral fluxes and may be substituted anywhere a
solid wire, EM14K electrode is used.
