Applications and Features

( 1 ) Weld metal is austenitic structure with 18% Cr-11.5% Ni-2.2Mo.

( 2 ) Exceelent resistance to general, pitting and intergranular corrosion due to Mo addition.

( 3 ) Stable arc, good slag removal, low spatters, X-ray quality welds and good penetration.

( 4 ) Suitable for welding critical chemical vessels and AISI 316L stainless steel.
