FOR WELDING AUSTENITIC STAINLESSS STEELS CONTAINING A NOMINAL 19Cr-13Ni-3.5Mo
NSK-317
CLASSIFICATION
AWS A5.4 E317-17 | EN ISO 3581-A E 20 13 4 R
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A balanced rutile alumina-silicate flux coating which concentrically extruded on a fully alloyed core wire and bound by a blend of silicates that assures both coating strength and resistance to subsequent moisture absorption. Thes
WELDING FEATURES OF THE ELECTRODE
Suitable for use on all welding set including low voltage welding set. The arc is exceptionally smooth, the slag normally detaching & the weld appearance excellent. For all-positional welding ideally use smaller diameters.
APPLICATIONS AND MATERIALS TO BE WELDED
Applications for the electrode are to be found in the Chemical, Petro-Chemical and Cryogenic Processing and Storage Industries as well as the Food, Brewery and Pharmaceutical Industries using the following materials: ASTM 317 CG8M NSK-317 is usually used for welding alloys of similar composition and are utilized in severely corrosive environments (such as those containing halogens) where crevice and pitting corrosion are of concern.
WELDING AMPERAGE AC and DC
OTHER DATA
Electrodes that have become damp should be re-dried at 150oC for 1 hour
