E308L-16
- Designed for the welding of common “18-8” austenitic stainless steels，such as type 302, 304, 304L & CF-8
- Petrol Chemical Equipment Manufacturing
- Power Generation Construction
- Food & Beverage Equipment
- Shipbuilding & Oshore
- Transportation Equipment Manufacturing
Welding Position
- Rutile-Basic stainless steel electrode
- Weldable on AC and DCEP polarity
- Excellent weldability in all position welding except vertical down
- High resistance to weld porosity
- Easy slag removal
- 308L can produce lower carbon content weld metal with higher resistance to intergranular corrosion
