Description
- For welding 18% chromium ” 12% nickel ” 2% molybdenum austenitic stainless steels such as 316 and 317 but with a low ferrite (i.e.
- FN2) it can also be used for welding 304/304L to 316/316L stainless steels in cryogenic service at temperatures down to -452 F.
- The maximum carbon content of less than 0.03% preserves the intergranular corrosion-resistant properties of the weld deposit and weld zone, yielding x-ray quality welds.
- The 2% molybdenum content of 316L gives the weld deposit excellent corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures against “pitting” that may be caused by sulfuric, phosphoric and acetic acids.
- Common applications include equipment that manufactures rayon, dye, paper, ink, rubber, bleach, photographic chemicals and on the sealing faces of valves and fittings for acid, gas, water and steam equipment.
- Spool Weight: 2 Lb of Wire – Available Sizes: 0.025″, 0.030″and 0.035″ – Spool Quantity Packs: 1 Spool, 2 Spools, 4 Spools, and 6 Spools.
- For shielding gas use 100% Argon or Argon/Helium for greater penetration and higher speeds
