Application
EB-2 is used for submerged arc welding of 1 ¼ chrome, ½ moly steels.
Note: Both agglomerated and fused fluxes can be used for submerged arc welding.
Note: The chemical composition of the flux mainly affects the chemistry of the weld metal and consequently its corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.
