Bossweld TC16 7016 low hydrogen twin coated electrodes are designed for professional arc stick welding applications requiring high strength and durability. These 3.2mm electrodes come in a 25-stick pack and are suitable for welding high tensile steels, making them ideal for rural maintenance, fabrication, and repair of farm machinery.

The TC16 electrodes feature a dual coating system: the inner coating contains ionising and conducting ingredients that produce a strong, stable arc concentrated around the wire, providing excellent arc striking characteristics and superior arc stability. The outer coating is non-conductive and contains shielding and slag-forming elements, contributing to x-ray quality weld metal and compatibility with inverter welding technology.

These electrodes are versatile for general welding tasks, maintenance workshops, repair of earth moving equipment, and root runs on pipe butt joints or plates. Their extremely stable arc allows for greater tolerance to rust or paint on the work surface compared to other electrodes.

Key features and benefits include:

• Excellent arc striking characteristics
• Smooth and stable arc performance
• Easy slag removal
• Tolerance to rust or paint on the work surface
• Produces x-ray quality weld metal
• Compatible with inverter welding and suitable for all positional welding except vertical down
• ABS Approval - Grade 3 H10 certified
