Designed as a low Manganese (Mn) replacement for E81T1-K2M products. Meets all requirements of E81T1-K2M classification except for the minimum Mn requirement. This product offers reductions of Mn in the weld fume of 60-80% over a standard E81T1-K2M with low diffusible hydrogen as well as enhanced operator appeal and excellent out of positional capability.
