3.2mm x 1kg MWA E316L Stainless Steel Electrode

MAC STAIN E100 ELC

Description & Applications:
High quality rutile low carbon stainless steel electrode depositing weld metal of the 19% Cr, 12% Ni, 3% Mo type for corrosion resistance. Suitable for use in all positions except vertical down, high acid resistance. Extra low carbon. Wide usage in textile, pulp and paper, rayon and chemical industries. May be used for overlaying carbon and low alloy steels to provide corrosion and acid resistance. Suitable for general service at temperatures up to 500◦C and for acid resistance up to 350◦C. The electrode is suitable for welding steels of AISI 316L, 316 and 317 types
