PIPELINER NR-207XP AWS: E71T8-K6 Self-Shielded Flux-Cored (FCAW-S) Wire Electrode
For consistently high impact values,
choose 207XP. Optimum perfor-
mance on vertical down, hot, fill and
cap passes on standard cross-country
p
ipelines and arctic grade pipe.
Recommended for API Pipe Grades
X42 through X70.
WELDING POSITIONS
ADVANTAGE LINCOLN
• Consistently high CVN properties,
even down to -40˚F (-40˚C).
• Virtually eliminates CVN values
below 42 ft•lbf (56 joules).
• Self-shielded, flux-cored. No need
for external gas or flux.
• Produces quality welds in moderate
wind conditions with no tenting.
CONFORMANCE
AWS A5.29-98: E71T8-K6
ASME SFA-5.29: E71T8-K6
• Our quality driven manufacturing
system – certified to ISO 9001 –
and our exceptionally high grade
raw materials mean every coil of
I
nnershield delivers great arc
characteristics and superior
feedability.
• Manufactured to actual lot control.
Actual certificates of conformance
are available upon request.
TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
• Suggested for use on applications
demanding consistently high tough-
ness.
• Standard cross country pipelines.
• Arctic grade pipe.

(1)
The strength and elongation properties reported were obtained from a .505" tensile specimen artificially aged at 220°F
(104°C) for 48 hours, as permitted by AWS A5.29-98. A naturally aged tensile specimen may take months to achieve the
specified properties. The time required for the natural aging of weld deposits is dependent upon ambient conditions, weld-
ment geometry, the metallurgical structure of the weld deposit and other factors.
