About The Lincoln Electric Company

Innershield wire by Lincoln Electric is one of the most user-friendly,convenient, versatile wires on earth. This exceptionally feedableand consistent wire includes shielding, slagging and deoxidizingmaterials built right in to its inner core. That means no external gasbottles or flux on the job! It’s a superb choice for bridges, offshoredrilling rigs, and other outside welding applications where winds area factor.

• Shielding, slagging and deoxidizing materials are built right in tothe inner core.

• No need for external gas or flux.

• Many Innershield wires to choose from – a wire for everyapplication.

• Recommended to be used with constant voltage powersources.

• One of the most user-friendly welding processes on the markettoday.

• A great choice for use in moderately windy conditions.

• As with all of our wires, Innershield’s arc characteristics areoutstanding! That’s because we pay more attention tochemistry, quality of raw materials, and manufacturingprocesses than any wire manufacturer in the world!

• Best of all, Innershield is designed and built by Lincoln Electric.Our company is all about innovative thinking — about listeningand responding to the needs of welding professionals — aboutfinding ways to make welding quicker, stronger, and more efficient.

Lincoln Electric is the world’s premier

manufacturer of welding equipment and

consumables. No company on earth is

more focused on the ever-changing

needs of the welding

professional. Our business is all about

helping companies make their welding

operations more effective, more

efficient, more profitable.

Lincoln is truly your “One Source” when

it comes to welding. We’re a company

that continually rededicates itself to the

equally important goals of exceptional

quality, and exceptional service. Our

field support team –– with hundreds of

field sales engineers and thousands of

Advantage Lincoln

More precise control. Innershield’s open arc process allows the oper-ator to control the placement of the weld metal and the puddle withexceptional accuracy.

More consistent weld deposits. Innershield performs better becauseInnershield is built better. The best raw materials. The best manufactur-ing processes. The best quality control systems.

Versatility. No matter what welding positions your job requires, there’san Innershield wire specifically designed to handle it. We’ve providedindividual wire descriptions in this brochure that will make it easy foryou to choose the right Innershield product for your needs.

Better portability. Because Innershield is completely self-contained —with shielding, slagging and deoxidizing materials built right in to thewire’s core – there’s no need for flux feeding systems or gas bottles.That means increased portability of your rigs, and more efficientwelding operations.

Better feedability. We’ve coated Innershield wire with speciallydesigned lubricants that keep the wire feeding beautifully — inch afterinch, coil after coil.

This electrode, and others of the same AWS classification, are not required to deposit weldmetal capable of delivering any minimum specified Charpy V-Notch (CVN ) properties. Itshould not be used in applications where minimum specified CVN properties are required.Typical applications where minimum specified CVN properties are required include, but arenot restricted to, bridges, pressure vessels, and buildings in seismic zones. The user of thisproduct is responsible for determining whether minimum CVN properties are required forthe specific application.

(1) The strength and elongation properties reported were obtained from a .505” tensile specimen artificially aged at 220°F (104°C) for 48 hours, as permitted by AWS A5.20-95. A naturally aged tensile specimen may take months to achieve the specified properties. See AWS A5.20-95, paragraph A8.3. The time required for the natural aging of weld deposits is dependent upon ambient conditions, weldment geometry, the metallurgical structure of the weld deposit and other factors.

The opacity of NR-203MP slag to x-ray is such that slag inclusions will normally appear lighter than the weld.Voids will normally appear darker than the weld. When using gamma-radiography, slag inclusions and voids willnormally appear darker than the weld. Improved x-ray film readability usually can be obtained by slight over-exposure at an excitation potential consistent with good x-ray practice, but not over 240 KV. For detailedinformation on welding techniques, procedure adjustments, and their effects on weld appearance and quality,request publication C3.2400 “Innershield Electrode - Semiautomatic Production Welding Guide”.

The opacity of NR-203 Ni C Plus slag to x-ray is such that slag inclusions will normally appear lighter than theweld. Voids will normally appear darker than the weld. When using gamma-radiography, slag inclusions andvoids will normally appear darker than the weld. Improved x-ray film readability usually can be obtained byslight over-exposure at an excitation potential consistent with good x-ray practice, but not over 240 KV. Fordetailed information on welding techniques, procedure adjustments, and their effects on weld appearanceand quality, request publication C3.2400 “Innershield Electrode - Semiautomatic Production Welding Guide”.

A naturally aged tensile specimen may take months to achieve the specified properties. See AWS A5.20-95, paragraph A8.3. The time required for the natural aging of weld deposits is dependent upon ambient conditions, weldment geometry, the metallurgical structure of the weld deposit and other factors.

STORING INNERSHIELD ELECTRODES

In general, Innershield electrodes will produce weld depositswhich achieve hydrogen levels below 16 ml per 100 gramsdeposited metal. These products, like other products whichproduce deposits low in hydrogen, must be protected fromexposure to the atmosphere in order to maintain hydrogenlevels as low as possible, preventing rusting of the productand prevent porosity during welding. Accordingly, the follow-ing storage conditions are recommended for Innershieldelectrodes in their original, unopened boxes and plastic bags.

The recommended storage conditions are such that theymaintain storage conditions above the dew point to preventmoisture contamination on product.

For best results, electrode should be consumed as soon aspracticable. Properly store electrode may be kept up to threeyears from the date of manufacture. Consult your Lincolndistributor or sales representative if there is a question as towhen the electrode was made.

Once the electrode packaging is opened, Innershield elec-trodes can be subject to contamination from atmosphericmoisture. Care has been taken in the design of theseproducts to ensure that they are essentially resistant tomoisture pick-up; however, condensation of the moisturefrom the atmosphere onto the surface of the electrode can besufficient enough to degrade the product.

The following minimum precautions should be taken tosafeguard the product after opening the original package.Electrode should be used within approximately 1 week afteropening the original package. Opened electrodes should notbe exposed to damp moisture conditions or extremes intemperature and/or humidity where surface condensation canoccur. Electrodes mounted on wire feeders should beprotected against condensation. It is recommended that

electrode removed from its original packaging be placed inpoly bags (4 mil minimum thickness) when not in use.

Innershield electrodes will evidence high moisture levels in theform of gas tracks, higher spatter and porosity. Any rusty elec-trode should be discarded.

Innershield Products Used for Applications RequiringMore Restrictive Hydrogen Control (-H Electrodes)

The AWS specifications for flux-cored electrodes, AWS A5.20and A5.29, state that “Flux-cored arc welding is generallyconsidered to be a low hydrogen welding process”. To furtherclarify the issue, these specifications makes available optionalsupplemental designators for maximum diffusible hydrogenlevels of 4, 8 and 16 ml per 100 grams of deposited weldmetal.

Some Innershield products have been designed andmanufactured to produce weld deposits meeting morestringent diffusible hydrogen requirements. These electrodesare usually distinguished by an “H” added to the productname. These electrodes will remain relatively dry underrecommended storage conditions in their original, unopenedpackage or container.

For applications in which the weld metal hydrogen must becontrolled (usually H8 or lower), or where shipping and storageconditions are not controlled or known, only hermeticallysealed packaging is recommended. Innershield electrodes areavailable in hermetically sealed packages on a special orderbasis.

Once the package has been opened, the electrode should beused as soon as practicable.
