Ferritic, Austenitic, & Duplex Stainless Steels

Ferritic, Austenitic, & Duplex Stainless Steels

FOR WELDING LOW CARBON AUSTENITIC STAINLESS STEELS CONTAINING A NOMINAL 23Cr-12Ni- 3Mo AND FOR DISSIMILAR WELDS BETWEEN STAINLESS AND C-Mn STEELS

NSK-309MoL


CLASSIFICATION

AWS A5.4 E309LMo-17 | EN ISO 3581-A E 23 12 2 L 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. These also gives combine ease of use with the smooth appearance of weld deposits.

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. Transition welds between stainless steel and ferritic steel welding clad plate or as a buffer layer on ferritic steel before completing with a more conventional low carbon austenitic stainless steel containing Mo, such as 316 and 316L.
