AquaForce, the #1 underwater welding electrode
We have achieved a breakthrough in developing a new electrode for wet welding, after a long and challenging process. It took us nearly 7 years and over 200 formulations to create the best electrode for underwater wet welding. We are proud to introduce CEWELD® AquaForce HR and CEWELD® AquaForce MG, the latest additions to our CEWELD® AquaForce family. These electrodes meet the standards of DIN 2302 (which will soon become an ISO standard) and AWS A 5.35 and AWS D 3.6M.

The term "underwater welding" is used to describe welding work carried out under various ambient conditions in which the workpieces to be welded are located below the surface of the water.
Earl Toups, Hyperbaric Welding and NDT Manager at DCN Diving explains how it feels to weld underwater.
CEWELD® AquaForce Electrodes are designed for hyperbaric, wet underwater welding
Direct contact of arc and workpiece with the water.
- it is the key technology for repairing underwater steel structures that cannot go into dry dock.
- Welding is performed underwater and is directly exposed to the wet environment.
- The greater flexibility makes it more effective, efficient and economical than long stays in the shipyard with laborious evacuation of the water.
- Power is supplied by cables and hoses connected to the welder.
- Complete insulation of the cables and hoses is essential to avoid the risk of electric shock.
- SMAW (Shielded metal arc welding) is one of the most commonly used methods in repair welding.
- Beautiful fine rippled and smooth bead appearance
- Self lifting slag
- Extreme stable arc with excellent weld pool visibility
- No metal-powder in the coating
- No porosity, No inclusions
- 3,2 mm offers easily an A height of 4 mm in all positions
- No concave welds in any position
- No grinding necessary between the layers
- Environmentally friendly insolation that contains no Vinyl, Acryl, Alkyd or Paraffin
