Classification
APPLICATIONS
  • Suitable for joining AISI 301L, 302L, 304L and 308L steel having 18Cr/8Ni with low carbon content.
  • Welding for clad steels of similar composition.
  • Overlays in un-alloyed, low alloy steels etc.
description

An extra low carbon 19/10 stainless steel electrode with properties like resistance to oxidation, resistance to cracking at high temperature. The extra low carbon decreases the possibility of intra-granular corrosion. The electrode gives smooth arc, fine bead appearance and shiny finish.
