WARNINGBe sure to follow the safety practices stated in the following in order toprotect welders, operators and accompanied workers from a seriousaccident resulting in injury or death.
WARNING
Electric shock can kill you.
CAUTIONFumes and gases generated in welding can be dangerous to your health.Welding in confined spaces can be dangerous for suffocation because of oxygen deficient atmospheres.
CAUTION
Arc rays can injure eyes and burn skin.
Be sure to follow the safety practices stated in the following when you use welding consumables.Be sure to follow the safety practices stated in the instruction manual when you use welding equipment.
Do not touch live electrical parts. (A covered electrode held with an electrode holder and a wire inwelding are electrically live.)Wear dry, insulated gloves. Do not wear teared and wet gloves.Use an electric shock preventing device (open-circuit-voltage-reducing device) when welders oroperators work in confined or high-level spaces. Use also a lifeline when a welder or an operatorconducts welding at a high-level area.Follow the safaty practices stated in the instruction manual of the welding manchine before you use.Do not use a welding manchine case or cover of which is removed. Welding cables must be a sizeadequate for the capacity expected. Welding cables must be maintained, and a damaged cable must berepaired or replaced one.
Keep your head out of the source of fumes or gases to prevent from directly breathing high densityfumes or gases.Use local exhaust ventilation, or wear respirators in order to prevent you from breathing fumes and toxicgases which cause toxication, poor health and suffocation by oxygen deficient atmospheres.Use general ventilation for welding in the workshop. Particularly in welding in confined spaces, be sureto use adequate ventilation, or wear respirators at the presence of a trained supervisor.Do not weld where operations of degreasing, cleaning, spraying, and painting are present nearby.Welding work close to these operations may cause a generation of harmful gases.Use adequate ventilation or respirators with special attention in welding plated and coated steel.Use respirators, eye safety glasses and safety leather gloves when handling welding fluxes in order toprevent you from the flux dust.
Wear hand shields with an adequate grade of shade in welding and supervising the welding work.Select the correct grade shade for filter lenses and filter and filter plates suitable for exact welding work

The tips of the welding wires and filler wires can injure eyes, face, etc.
Do not lose your hole on the tip of the wire when taking off the tip of the wire.Do not point the welding torch towards your face when checking the wire feeding condition.
CAUTION
Falling down and dropping welding consumables can injure you.
Wear safety shoes, and pay your attention not to drop welding consumables on your body when youcarry and handle them. Keep your posture correct not to cause a crick in your back while handlingthem.Pile up welding consumables so that falling down and dropping cannot take place while storing andcarrying them.
CAUTION
Fire and explosion can take place.
Never weld in areas adjacent to highly inflammable materials. Remove consumables so that spatter cannot ignite them. If combusibles cannot be removed, cover them with a noninflammable material.Do not weld a vessel or pipe which contains combustibles or being sealed.Do not put a hot weldment close to combusibles right after welding finished.When welding ceiling, floors, walls, etc, remove combustibles at the other side of them.Any part of welding wire, with exception of wire extended at the tip of the torch, must be free fromtouching on the electical circuit of the base metal side.Fasten the cable joints and seal them in a insulation tape. The cable for the base metal side should beconnected closer to the part of welding.Be ready to cope with a possible accident by equipping fire-extingushing equipmint adjacent to thewelding areas.
CAUTIONFlying spatters and slags can injure eyes and cause burn skins.High temperature heat in welding can cause burn skins.
Wear safety glasses, safety leather gloves for welding, long sleeve shirts, foot covers, leather aprons,etc.Do not touch weldments while hot.
by referring to the standard of JIS T8141.Wear protectors suitable for preventing contact with arc rays, such as safety leather gloves for welding,long sleeve shirts, foot covers, leather aprons, etc.Use, as needed shade curtains for welding by surrounding the welding areas in order to preventaccompanied workers from the arc rays.

HYUNDAI BALL PAC is a new and improved version of our original Pail Pack.Our patented ‘marble’ system, acts as a ‘non-static’ resistance on top of the wire. The marbles addweight on the wire to ensure that only one strand, at a time, is picked up.With the shape and weight of the ‘marbles’, the wire pulls up and out of the Ball Pac consistently andwithout the normal static resistance found with other drum systens. Our wire is pulled out withminimum resistance and seamless feedability is the end result.
Hyundai hard wire is ‘pre-tensioned’ before being put into the Ball Pac. Meaning, our wire has littleto no cast and helix when coming out of the Ball Pac and the ‘straightness’ of the wire will give moreaccurate and consistent starts and weld tracking. This is most ideal for robotic applications. As thewire has no cast, you can decrease the tip diameter by one size(**Except in the case of .052”). Thiswill ensure that the wire is in constant contact with the tip (better current transfer) and will increasethe accuracy of the weld.
Another major factor in the quality and consistency of Hyundai hard wire is the method of copper-coating the wire. Hyundai Welding is one of the few companies, in the world, who are currentlyusing the Electronic Coating process. With this State-of-the-Art coating process, the user willexperience the following benefits;
1) Better Feedability:due to the ‘even’coating of copper, feedability is more consistent. Resulting inlower feed resistance.
2) Copper Flaking:since wire is coated electronically, the adherence of the copper on the wire is100% as the coating is evenly applied thus, rendering ‘copper-flaking’obsolete. No more cloggedor damaged liners.
3) Current Transfer:the current transfer will be more consistent due to the ‘evenness’ of the coppercoating
4) Less Fume:with the even and consistent copper coating, there are less fums than conventionalchemically-coated wires on the market today.

1) Excellent feeding-Minimizing friction as it possesses a device developed for the prevention of twisted and tangledwire, thus, resulting in a smooth feeding action and stable arc, which facilitates welding.
2) Makes good tracking on a welding seam.Wire is set to be elastically twisted in the pail, so wire is pulled out straight, without rotation ofthe pail.
3) Improved welding efficiency.The large-packaged wire can save time in changing wire, which is effective, particularly, forrobotic and other automatic welding.
4) Prevention of welding wire deformation in “stacked” state with anti-tangling pressure devicesystem, deformation of the wound wire is greatly minimized or, as in most cases, has nowbecome obsolete.

Indicates the lowest temperature at which the impact strength of the weld metal referred toabove meets or exceeds 20 ft.lb(27J)
Indicates electrode.
FXXXEXXX
Classification of the electrode used in depositing the weld metal referred to above (seeTable 1 AWS A5.17-89).
F7A6 - EM12K is a complete designation. It refers to a flux that will produce weld metalwhich, in the as - welded condition, will have a tensile strength no lower than 70,000 psiand Charpy V - notch impact strength of at least 20ft - lb at - 60F when deposited with anEM12K electrode under the conditions called for in this specification
