Gift under the Christmas tree: OK 46.00 in new packaging now on store shelves

ESAB, one of the leaders in the production of equipment and consumables for welding and cutting, announced the release of the OK 46.00 electrode to the Russian market in a pack of 1 kg and 4 kg. The electrode in the new packaging will be available in a network of large retail stores this winter.
OK 46.00 will be presented in the ESAB branded yellow pack, which will be marked with the original OK trademark. For retail in large stores, the electrode is offered in diameters of 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 and 4.0 mm.
Rutile-cellulose electrode OK 46.00 is designed for welding structures made of low-carbon and low-alloy steels with a yield strength of up to 380 MPa in all spatial positions. It is characterized by an easy separation of slag, a smooth surface of the deposited roller with a smooth transition to the base metal and insensitivity to rust and other surface contamination.
The OK 46.00 electrode is suitable for welding thin-walled products, which distinguishes it from most other rutile electrodes, and the low idle voltage and stable arc gorenje at extremely low currents allows you to use the electrode from household sources.
Among other advantages of OK 46.00 is the absence of particularly harmful chemical elements and compounds in the welding smoke, which preserves the health of the welder and maintains high performance.
The OK 46.00 electrode is manufactured in Russia, has a NAKS certificate in accordance with the requirements of RD 03-613-03 and is approved by the Russian Maritime and River Register of Shipping.
"It was with OK 46.00 20 years ago that our way of localizing the production of welding materials in Russia began, and today it is one of the most used and beloved electrodes on the domestic market. We understand how important it is for professional and amateur welders to be able to purchase native electrodes in a convenient package in a regular store and at any time, so we are bringing them to the shelves of large DIY retailers this winter, " says Dmitry Kuraksa, Managing Director of ESAB Russia and CIS.
