Inception of RB-26 RB-26 is a high titania type covered electrode for welding mild steel. It was developed in 1951. The R in “RB” stands for rutile, which is the major ingredient in the coating flux, while “B” symbolizes a slag-shield covered electrode. “26” represents the 26th year of the Showa era of Japan, corresponding to 1951 when it was developed. Is RB-26 old-fashioned? You may believe that RB-26 is old-fashioned due to its inception. RB-26, however, is commonly used worldwide for welding light sheet metals and light-gauge formed steel in light-duty steel structures, and for surfacing thick-section welds to improve rough surfaces (the surface dressing technique). The consumption of RB-26 differs country by country. In Southeast Asia and the Middle East, RB-26 is one of the most commonly used, contemporary electrodes. RB-26 is superior to other E6013 electrodes on performance RB-26 persistently earns a good reputation among users due to the following outstanding features in out-of-position welding including the verticaldown position: (1) Smoother arc transfer (2) Less spatter (3) Self-peeling slag removal (Figure 1) (4) Smoother bead surfaces with fine ripples (5) Excellent fusion with base metals provides a longer bead per one electrode — advantageous in welding sheet metals (6) Consistent chemical composition and mechanical properties (Table 1) How RB-26 is of international Kobe Steel has established a worldwide production and sales network in order to assure quicker delivery and technical services matching local demands for RB-26. This electrode is now mainly produced by Thai-Kobe Welding Co., Ltd. in Thailand in accordance with the Kobe Steel quality standard, and is sold not on
