Why choose ABRATIG 1181 filler metal?

ABRATIG 1181 is a popular filler metal for welding low-alloy steels subjected to low temperatures or severe mechanical stress. Here’s why we choose it:

  1. Excellent low-temperature toughness

Thanks to its nickel content (~1%), ER80S-Ni1 remains highly resilient down to -50°C and even -60°C, making it an excellent choice for :

-pipelines in cold climates,

-cryogenic tanks,

offshore or frost-exposed structures.

  1. Good mechanical strength

It offers a tensile strength of around 550 to 620 MPa, making it suitable for structural or pressure connections (boilers, piping, etc.) with steels such as ASTM A516, A333, A350…

  1. Good weldability, low risk of cracking

Its balanced composition ensures stable melting, low spatter, and a thermally controlled affected zone, reducing the risk of cold or hot cracking.
