Abracrom 316B
Basic type stainless steel electrode
Description & applications
Low carbon basic coated Mo- containing austenitic stainless steel electrode with approx. 8% ferrite. Stable arc, easy to watch weld pool, good slag removal and regular weld bead. Good behaviour in positional welding and on bad prepared joints.
Excellent mechanical properties.
For welding and cladding on austenitic Cr-Ni-Mo stainless and plated steels. Applied for service temperatures from -196°C up to +350°C in the chemical- and petrochemical industries, in refineries and for ship building to weld pipes, tanks, heat exchangers...
