309-16 Stainless Steel Electrodes 1/8in x 14, 10 Pounds

Weldcote E308L-16 Stainless Steel Electrodes contain extra low carbon for the welding of austenitic, low carbon 18% Cr-8%Ni stainless steels such as AISI 304-ELC. The weld deposit of this electrode contains a maximum of 0.04% carbon, which greatly reduces the formation of chromium carbides, protecting the corrosion resistant qualities of the base metal and weld. Weldcote308L-16 electrodes have a high deposition rate resulting in excellent efficiency. Weldcote E309L-16 Stainless Steel electrodes are used for welding 22%Cr-12%Ni stainless steel, mild or carbon steel to stainless steel and stainless clad steel.This electrode will produce an austenitic-ferritic, ductile weld deposit that contains a maximum of 0.04% carbon, thereby providing a good crack resistance superior to that of 309 electrodes.Typical applications are similar to those of 309-16, but where stronger, corrosion resistance is required.
