OERLIKON CITOREX welding electrode

Marka: LINCOLN ELECTRIC

A rutile-basic coated electrode, particularly recommended for welding penetration layers, filling, and welding X-ray-inspected (RT) welds in pipe, boiler, and tank production. The welding current can be reduced relative to other electrodes while maintaining arc stability. Excellent for tack welding with large edge gaps, suitable for inexperienced and novice welders. Thanks to the low Si content in the weld metal, welded components are suitable for subsequent galvanizing or enamel coating. Packaging (2.5 mm - 4.1 kg, 3.2 mm - 4.3 kg)

OERLIKON CITOREX Welding Electrode – Rutile-Basic Electrode for Roots and Fillers

The OERLIKON CITOREX welding electrode is a medium-coated rutile-basic electrode designed for welding root layers, fillers, and joints requiring radiographic inspection (RT). It allows for reduced welding current while maintaining a stable arc, facilitating work in out-of-position welding and assembly applications.

Key advantages of the OERLIKON CITOREX welding electrode:

stable arc at reduced current – ​​greater control over the weld pool,

excellent for tack welds and large edge clearances,

smooth, clean weld face and easy-to-release slag,

low spatter – less interpass machining,

low silicon (Si) content in the weld metal – joints suitable for subsequent galvanizing or enameling,

beginner-friendly – ​​easy ignition and reliable reignitions.

OERLIKON CITOREX Welding Electrode Applications

Recommended for the production and repair of pipes, boilers, and tanks, as well as for the construction of pipelines and steel structures in restricted positions. Suitable for workshops and assembly work with unalloyed and low-alloy steels.

Specifications and Classifications
