Carbon steel, stainless steel and specialty electrodes — plus TIG, MIG and flux-cored wires — engineered for pipelines, shipbuilding, pressure vessels and structural steel fabrication. Trusted by fabricators in 30+ countries for over 28 years.
From general-purpose mild steel rods to low-hydrogen critical-joint electrodes and molybdenum-bearing stainless grades — every product is tested against its AWS classification before it leaves the factory.
Deep-penetrating all-position rod that welds through rust, paint and mill scale. The field-repair workhorse.
Smooth arc, low spatter and easy slag removal. The most popular general-purpose mild steel rod.
H4 diffusible hydrogen and ≥27J at −30 °C. Specified for pressure vessels, bridges and shipbuilding.
Super low carbon (≤0.04%) rutile electrode for 304/304L. Self-detaching slag, excellent corrosion resistance.
ER70S-6, ER80S-G copper-coated wires with smooth feedability, low spatter and consistent chemistry.
E71T-1C, E71T-5C and E81T1-K2C for high-deposition, low-hydrogen and high-strength applications.
AWS A5.1 certified electrodes for every application — from general fabrication to critical structural and pipeline welding. Available in 2.5 mm, 3.2 mm, 4.0 mm and 5.0 mm diameters.
A forceful, deep-digging arc electrode for demanding base material conditions. Welds through rust, paint, oil and mill scale with a fast-freeze slag that is easy to clean — making it the first choice for pipeline tie-ins, structural steel erection and heavy equipment repair.
A smooth-running, easy-to-use electrode with excellent bead appearance and minimal spatter. The most popular mild steel rod for general fabrication, sheet metal work and maintenance — equally suited to beginners and experienced welders.
Designed for high-quality welding of carbon and low-alloy steels where hydrogen-induced cracking must be prevented. The iron powder coating increases deposition efficiency while maintaining H4 diffusible hydrogen and excellent low-temperature toughness.
AWS A5.4 certified electrodes for corrosion resistance, high strength and specialised applications — from food processing and chemical equipment to marine environments and high-temperature service.
Rutile-coated, super low carbon (≤0.04%) stainless electrode for welding 304 and 304L stainless steels. Delivers smooth arc characteristics, self-detaching slag and excellent resistance to intergranular corrosion.
Specifically designed for welding dissimilar metals — joining stainless steel to carbon steel and low-alloy steels. The 23Cr/13Ni chemistry accommodates dilution while maintaining corrosion resistance and joint integrity.
Extra-low carbon stainless electrode with a molybdenum addition for excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Specified for 316/316L stainless steels in chemical, marine and pharmaceutical applications.
Highly resistant to weld metal cracks and fissures, with wide acceptance for welding high-yield stainless steels and dissimilar steels where cracking is a risk. Excellent oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures.
Designed for welding AISI 347 and 321 alloys. The niobium content stabilizes carbon and prevents chromium carbide precipitation, maintaining corrosion resistance in service temperatures above 400 °C.
AWS-certified wires for semi-automatic and automated welding — from aluminium TIG rods to high-deposition gas-shielded flux-cored wires.
ER4043 for 6XXX series, ER5356 for higher strength and ER5183 marine grade. Smooth feedability and consistent chemistry.
ER70S-6 and ER80S-G copper-coated wires with smooth feedability, low spatter and consistent arc characteristics.
E71T-1C, E71T-5C and E81T1-K2C for high-deposition, low-hydrogen and high-strength applications in heavy fabrication.

E6011 is a cellulosic electrode with a forceful digging arc and deep penetration — ideal for pipeline and field repair, and tolerant of rust, paint and mill scale. E6013 is a rutile electrode with a smooth, stable arc and easy slag removal — the best general-purpose rod for fabrication and thin sheet. E7018 is a low-hydrogen iron powder electrode (H4) with excellent low-temperature toughness — specified for critical structural, pressure vessel and bridge welding where hydrogen-induced cracking must be avoided.
Use TOKO E309L-16. Its 23Cr/13Ni chemistry is designed specifically for dissimilar joints between stainless and carbon or low-alloy steels. For high-yield or unknown stainless grades where cracking is a risk, TOKO E312L-16 offers superior crack resistance.
