Description & applications

• Rutile flux cored stainless steel wire for gas shielded arc welding

• 20% chromium - 25% nickel - 4.5% molybdenum - 1.5% copper - low carbon deposit

• Exceptional resistance to moisture pick up

• Attractive bead appearance, very good penetration and high productivity

• Excellent X-ray soundness

• Good resistance to hot cracking

• Maximum performances in the horizontal and downhand positions

• Welded with classical economical Ar-CO2 mixtures

APPLICATIONS

FCW S 904L is suitable for welding stainless steels of similar composition and for dissimilar welds between these steels and mild, low alloy and other stainless steels. It is an alternative choice to overmatch leaner alloys such as 317LN, 1.4439 etc
