Description: AFM ER80S-D2 contains 1/2% molybdenum for increased strength and a high level of deoxidiziers (Mn and Si) to control porosity when welding with CO2 as the shielding gas. It will give radiographic quality welds with excellent bead appearance in both ordinary and difficult-to-weld carbon and low-alloy steels. AFM ER80S-D2 exhibits excellent out-of-position welding characteristics with the short circuiting and pulsed arc processes. The combination of weld soundness and strength makes AFM ER80S-D2 suitable for single and multiple-pass welding of a variety of carbon and low-alloy, higher strength steels in both the as welded and postweld heat-treated conditions.
