This will avoid possible contamination with condensation.
Management of welding consumables 1.
1 1 storage conditions.
When issuing welding consumables from storage for welding where there is a significant difference in temperature between the two areas products should be allowed to reach the ambient temperature of the welding fabrication area before the packaging is opened.
Once removed from the original protective packaging flux cored wires should be used within 72 hours.
Welding should be carried out at room temperature and low relative humidity.
Adequate storage handling and re conditioning of electrodes vary according to type.
Electrodes to be re dried should be removed from the can and spread out in the oven because each electrode must reach the drying temperature.
